Why slack?

  • For conversations with the MMS team. Easier & more organized than WebEx chat, which do not disappear at the end of each WebEx session.

If you *DO* already have an account on our Slack workspace

If you *DO NOT* yet have an account

  • Access our Slack workspace through a native app on your phone or desktop or using your browser.
  • Using your browser:
    1. Use this invite: https://joinmmsswt2022.slack.com/t/mmsswt102020/shared_invite/zt-hkyfm8m9-8NbEmn~dPkF3PHcRqObtzg?redir=%2Farchives%2FC043JFH8N07
    2. Enter your email, continue
    3. Image RemovedImage Added
    4. Follow the link Slack just emailed you to confirm your address
  • Using an iOS device:
    1. Install Slack from the App Store
    2. From your iOS device, use this invite link: https://joinmmsswt2022.slack.com/t/mmsswt102020/shared_invite/zt-hkyfm8m9-8NbEmn~dPkF3PHcRqObtzg?redir=%2Farchives%2FC043JFH8N07
    3. Follow the steps above (under “join by browser”)
  • To the best of my knowledge, joining using an Android device is similar to the iOS steps

Using our Slack workspace

  • Again: why use Slack?
    • Have a question for the speaker that requires a lengthy answer? Comment for the speaker that will spark a discussion?
      • Use Slack to keep the conversation going after a talk ends
    • Have you ever thought: “it’s difficult to keep up with the several conversations happening in this WebEx chat!” or “I wish I could remember what that person said in the chat of my last WebEx meeting”
      • Use Slack to organize multiple conversations, which do not need to end with each WebEx session
    • Slack conversations are organized by channels on left-hand side of your workspace
      • General (points of interest for everyone or just say “hi”)
      • Splinters and plenary sessions
      • Direct messaging for private chats

 

  • THIS IS IMPORTANT!

    • When replying to a question, please reply in thread rather than starting a new thread.
