Skype taking on Intercom, Zendesk, and other support tools with this move. When will Slack do the same? 🤔 There are already a few Slack-integrated apps to embed a channel into a site.

@rrhoover to be honest, I don't know why they haven't already :(

@rrhoover Most founders I know use Intercom. We need more innovation in this space.

@rrhoover I reckon it'll only be a matter of time before we see this feature for Messenger, Slack, and other popular messaging services. It'll be the new stories!
Felipe Rohde
@hassanriggs innovation like?

@felipe_rohde @hassanriggs Follow me and I'll keep you up to date in the upcoming weeks ;-)

Dang, this would be great if it didn't make users sign in before chatting, if the recipient is a user instead of a bot.
Alain Ekambi
@joeadamg we thought so too and are working on something in that direction :) https://www.dklo.co

@joeadamg This currently a limitation because we don't want users to be spammed.
Christian Grobmeier
@renebrandel @joeadamg Why don't you let the user decide on this? Intercom, Drift, and so on, they all think there are other solutions than forcing a potential customer to login. Just saying- i would prefer using Skype (which I use daily) instead of another messaging app.
Rene Brandel
@grobmeier @joeadamg That's a very good point and I'll follow-up on this. Mind that this is our 1st version and feedback like this will keep improving our products! Thanks

Consider this + the Microsoft Bot Framework and you can see why Skype has become so attractive to developers. https://dev.botframework.com/
