slack, slack.com

It seems that slack is just another messaging platform but in reality slack is so much more.
Slack is what Google Wave should have been. It is an integration platform.

At fist look what you have with lack is kind of a private IRC but the ability of integrating external webapps either as a caller or s a callee makes it wonderful.

I quickly gave it a try and integrated slack with both BitBucket and Trello and then I have created some webhooks that notify the team on commits, builds and server status and health by querying a ganglia daemon.


The bonus is that I get free realtime mobile notifications which is awesome.
