On your side when you don't even think you need it!

What is this thing? 

• Doing everything from the 'couch'.
• The 'couch' being Slack!​ 

Slack defines itself as:

Why that name? 

"Slack" in Urban Dictionary: 

• An approach where one stops trying to make things happen or exert control, and instead simply "allows" or "lets" favorable events occur.

When you use Slack, you wait for things to happen to you most of the time!

You: Isn't adding Slack to my tool set extra overhead?  

Me: Maybe! 

You: I am not convinced, it's going to be more overhead for me. Give me some good reasons to use it. 

Me: Get ready, I am about to blow your mind! 

How is that EFFICIENT? 

You: 

Does this look familiar?

How about this? 

I can go on and on but you get the idea

Say Hello TO Slackbot

Say Hello TO /commands

• Don't feel like moving your mouse to message a person or post in a channel?

You:  Woah, woah, I have to read a pile of messages, with no subjects? Just some channels? It seems like a lot of work.

Me: See, you are trying to work too hard. You need to cut yourself some 'Slack'! 

Say Hello TO Targeted notifications

• Different level of notification

Say Hello TO Losing your conversations
