Hi to the UNA-SF Board,
This is going out via InterMix just to the UNA-SF Board. I have found what appears to be a very cool team communication system called Slack. You can go directly to slack.com to read more, or read about slack in the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/12/technology/slack-the-office-messaging-app-that-may-finally-sink-email.html?smid=nytcore-ipad-share&smprod=nytcore-ipad&_r=0.
I have set up a team for Gender Crosstalk Outreach on Slack. If you would like to be invited to that team as a way of staying in touch with the Gender Crosstalk outreach, or just as a way to see what Slack is, please let me know at rogerweaton@gmail.com or 415 933 0153.
We need some experience with Slack before we will know for sure, but it looks like it could be a great toolk for the UNA-SF Board communications. I had hoped InterMix would be that tool, but no one has taken me up on that. Slack is way slicker and cooler than InterMix in a lot of ways. If it looks good then we can set up a separate team for UNA-SF. It is free for the first 10,000 messages, which should last us a while.
