My friend Paul turned me onto a cool new collaborative tool, called Slack. I haven’t fully embraced it yet, but I think I might start using it with all my contractors. The idea behind Slack is that it’s an instant message that keeps the history of everything you’ve done in one place. While at a glance, it’s not that much different than Skype, I like it because it’s easy to invite multiple people into a conversation, and very easy to see the full history of everything that happened.
I’m still learning about it… but I have found one glitch, it doesn’t play well with Firefox. It seems to work just fine with Explore and even Edge, haven’t tried it Chrome or Safari. So be sure to avoid using it Firefox, as it crashed my browser several times. The iOS app is great. Unlike Skype, I get every message as soon as it comes. I’ll probably continue to play with it, and i just invited another of my programmers to join.
Give it a shot. it’s a pretty nice to collaborate.
