Hey all,

I’ve just created a new Slack. The main idea is to have a place where we could make use of Slack integrations (for Beeminder, IFTTT, Zapier, RescueTime, etc) to post to an _accountbeelity_ stream, but I’ve added other channels for chatting about Beeminder, QS stuff, apps, etc. (There’s a random channel, as well. You know, for cat gifs.)

If you want to join up, just DM me your email address with “slack” in the subject, and I will send you an invite asap. And feel free to invite others once you’re in!

**Current channels:**  
Beeminder  
Chat about Beeminder and Beeminding (Note that this is NOT a support channel. I’m just a user, and this is just for fun.)

accountability-stream  
Use this to shame yourself into doing things, to show off the things you’ve done, or both, this is a place to send IFTTT/Zapier alerts, Beeminder zeno alerts, RescueTime notices focused work session notices, or anything else you want to be accountable for or share.

apps  
A place to talk about new apps, old apps, ways to use apps more effectively or in fun ways, etc.

quantified-self  
A place to discuss QS in all its forms

random
