slack

  • slack is a way to do realtime passing around of notes / info during class
  • it is also a good way to arrange/coordinate social activities; works on phones, etc.
  • we will have room specific channels, as well as #general for course wide stuff and #random for fun.
  • room specific channels can be used for questions during the presentation (instead of / in addition to asking for help)
  • also have a #social channel, and maybe others; go ahead and invite.
