We use this for now, but with Slack there is the combination of IM with lists and TODO items. The alerts help us note when something is new and updated. What is interesting to me is how our society is slowly evolving the personal, short-term information storage and retrieval. That is how I view Slack, but without paying for the storage, it's in a sense used only for short-term memory. Not for important things like memories, where Google Docs is for memories and deeper thoughts.
