Slack
=
- instant real-time blah
- can add images easily
- notifies on changes
- can use on phones etc easily
bad:
- "conversations" expire, so useful information is lost
- overlapping chat, where 'the thread' is lost
- often misunderstandings occur due to speed/haste excitement of small fragmented communications.
wiki
=
- permanent data store
- can add rich, stylised, heirarchical, formatted, organised "website" content
- also "anybody can edit it" and it is maliable.
forum
=
- a kind-of-halfway house, where medium sized chunks can be added. Does not suite short replies (due to formatting and presentation), also "conversations" go off track, and you get way too many threads which under/overlap and require moderation.
- http://www.norwichhackspace.org/forum - not really active
