What Managers Need to Know About Slack, Yammer, and Chatter

would you use something that made it easy for you to save stuff from Slack in another place where it wasn't floating around? Like how you can star something for yourself, but instead you could star something so that your entire team could see that this was an important message?

I might. I think the value for me would hinge on how easy it was to contextualise the information.

Like if it was just a big list of "Stuff people have starred in Slack" I would not use it.

If it was a repository of information categorised by project and subject, maybe with a little blurb of info to give me a summary of it, then under all that a link to the source material if I still needed it, that might be compelling.

Thanks for sharing that. A few friends and I are trying to explore a product in this space, and what you said is pretty much what we've arrived at as well. If you have any other feedback you think we should keep in mind I'm all ears

Sounds like you're describing a mailing-list
