14	Slack Channel		Slack is a digital workspace for teams. Slack channels support ongoing peer conversations and make it easy to share documents and media. Check out the #joblistings channel, talk about #stemdiversity, and work on science #visuals with other SciCommers--just to name a few. We'd love to promote your articles, blog posts, videos, podcasts, etc., as well.
