I'm kinda shocked by the comments referring to Slack. Wave was very different from any other chat platform. You could edit everything, add different media elements to the document/channel and keep commenting everywhere on everything. Slack to me is really just another chat software. I see very little difference between it, campfire or Hipchat and honestly for the life of me don't understand why everyone transitioned from Campfire to Hipchat and now to Slack.
- xtracto 8y agoYeah, although I use and enjoy Slack at work, I see it as a watered down version of IRC.
- pavel_lishin 8y agoWhy does slack feel watered down?
- chiefalchemist 8y agoWave was closer to natural (offline) human conversation / collaboration. Slack, god bless it, is closer to a traditional forum with a different UI. Wave was a leap forward. Slack maybe a baby step.
- praneshp 8y agoWell hipchat to slack is probably explained by the buyout :-)
- daxfohl 8y agoYeah I remember it being more like OneNote than a chat app. At least that's now I remember trying to use it. Maybe it was something halfway in between. As much as I tried to use it, it never really caught on. Can't really remember now.
