It's easier to be creative when you can bounce-off an idea with a coworker immediately, rather than wait for the Zoom meeting or wait for them to answer your Slack message.
We're actually building a virtual office to make having these quick chats easier (gloo.chat). If you would want to try it out, or even just provide some feedback, that would be amazing given we just got started. Totally shameless plug.
