I use Slack&#x27;s &#x27;Posts&#x27; feature which is a full Markdown post that you can embed in a chat in Slack.<p>The reasons I use these are:
1. Rich content, organized &amp; clean lists with outbound links for status updates about things I&#x27;m working on, linking to Asana&#x2F;Github
2. Notes from one on ones, or general progress updates that I keep in a private channel and save basically as a stream-of-consciousness&#x2F;reality log, having them there makes them readily accessible in product and having them in Markdown makes them very readable when I&#x27;m browsing through.<p>In short, I treat Slack rooms almost like I would treat a folder in Dropbox, they just happen to also include some chat between people :P
