Slack will soon start testing voice and video chat
I wish slack would concentrate on making the app more productive for teams to work together remotely. We can type fast enough, in fact, hackernews tells me I&#x27;m typing too fast.<p>The problem is organizing and collecting the information and ensuring it is useful later, rather than just during the 5 minutes. Let users break a chat message out into a threaded discussion for example. We already have plenty of voice and video chat options, we can just pick up a phone. Those things are ephemeral. Text is forever. Let&#x27;s keep more of that so we can use it to further the business objectives.
