Slack's marketing is genius. The whole play on making Email look bad is brilliant and many startups are following suit.

But to be quite frank Slack is making things a whole lot worse (for me only perhaps?). It's super distracting. I have to add a new app to my workflow (while maintaining email). And Slack is much more demanding (end up checking it much more the email). Too many notifications and msgs. It isn't as ground-breaking as they want us to believe.

I wonder how long it will take for others to feel the same way I do? (maybe I'm the outlier?)

Mr. Butterfield is doing a stellar job leading the wheel. Congrats!
