Standalone emoji use is fine, but you can also reply within a message with a minuscule variant too. The suite of emojis is extensive in Slack, with the capability to utilise them in more than one way. Still, if it hides your mislaid insults, all is good. But beware, they’ll know if you’ve changed it, regardless of whether or not they saw the original.Ī greyed out ‘(edited)’ appears beside the new message. That lets you edit the original message to whatever you want. If you’ve typed the wrong message to your colleague you can act quickly by pressing the up arrow. If you have, then hopefully these seven steps should help you in future. If you haven’t yet gone down the Slack route, we highly recommend it. However, despite using it for quite a while now, we constantly find new quirks to the application: sometimes colourful, sometimes quick, sometimes homemade, sometimes slick. We’re big fans of Slack here at Silicon Republic, using it as the perfect foil to funnel both relevant and extremely trivial communications between different teams in the office (and off site). You can directly access all your files in Slack channels and direct messages as individual folders on your desktop file system.Want to squeeze a little more out of Slack? Here are seven simple steps to add a whole lot more productivity to your favourite communications tool. This is where the odrive integration comes in to save the day. The problem with files in Slack is finding them, accessing them, and organizing them. But it’s true that files say a lot about what teams are doing or working on. Ok, I may have bastardized the old Chinese saying. And that makes sense, too, because Slack was designed for messaging, not files. Slack, however, does not manage files so well. With Slack, you just hit the “+” and add your file, in mid stream, in real time, in context, all the time. In the past, you may have queued up an email and carefully considered the attachments or, in preparation for an office meeting, you gathered documents together and printed out multiple sets for every attendee. It makes sense that this is happening, because working around files is part of how teams work and Slack has brought down the barriers to how teams work. Perhaps by accident or by design - for whatever reason - Slack is the place where we transfer files, lots of it, practically everything. With both email and meetings covered in spades, Slack has become the digital office, except that it’s missing some really good filing cabinets. When we do have live meetings, we often fill a team channel in advance of the meeting with documents and the agenda. Less chit chat, more typing of what is relevant. Slack also has reduced team meetings to almost zero, as team channels capture ideas and inspirations as they happen and as they develop. Slack un-hides all of that, and places it in context for dynamic ongoing discussion and preserves for later historical recapture. I hate email strings, not knowing what is attached, where it ends and picks up, and who is on the effing cc or bcc. Two things that stand out to me is that it’s far superior to (1) email and (2) meetings. It’s a messaging service for team collaboration, with heavy splashes of color, interrupting bots, and lots of emoji.īeyond the design, it’s actually quite useful. We all know and love Slack for making work communication fun. Add the missing ingredient for total Slack domination
