Slack Getting Stories and Always on Audio

Slack recently announced two new features that might be interesting for places committed to using it. One is a stories feature similar to Instagram. While it seems strange at first blush, this might be useful for team updates and other "announcement" type videos.

The second is an always on communication channel. I really like this feature for IT teams. It would be great to have an open voice communication channel when troubleshooting an issue as a team. It would be the closest thing to being in the same room working together.
