So Google wave was Slack before Slack??

  I consider Google Wave closer to reddit for real time chat.

    That, sounds a lot like slack

      Less like IRC and more like using a Google Docs document or Office 365 Word document collaboration for a live chat, using different paragraph formatting for threading. (Some of the Wave collaboration tech wound up in Docs.)

      Slack allows 2-tier conversation (and IIRC, you cannot share code snippet in 2nd tier). Reddit and HackerNews allows n-tier conversation where you can branch a thread to heart's content.
