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.

- 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
- Have a question for the speaker that requires a lengthy answer? Comment for the speaker that will spark a discussion?
THIS IS IMPORTANT!
- When replying to a question, please reply in thread rather than starting a new thread.
