Ok sure… yes we already have Skype Chat Groups, the Official Softvelocity Newsgroups, the Clarion Google+ Community and probably a few more but how about a Slack team? Well, wonder no more! 
Edit: Slack now has added support to create an invite link! Click this to join the cw-talk on slack!
It has been active for a while now but somewhat quiet. Also, it was by manual invite only so that was a bit boring. Now you can self-invite thanks to the excellent [slackin][1] project.
Slackin hosted on a free azure web app - https://cw-talk.azurewebsites.net/
(It may take a while to warm up if no one has visited in a while so be patient please!)
EDIT: The self invite is no longer active, see below.

I had to move Azure accounts and setting up Slackin was a massive drama. Since slack is not exactly active I have decided to return to manual invite only mode and save on the node/npm/gulp/grunt/git/bash/avocado hipster tax 
Send a PM or leave a message on this thread if you want to join the slack group!
Nope. This does not work either!
How many are on the slack stream?
How about this one Click this to join the cw-talk on slack!
Looks like about 50 people joined, no idea how many of those actually have slack open regularly.
