What it's like to be Matt Slack who has the Twitter handle Slack, like the tech company Salesforce just bought for over $27 billion. (via CNBCMakeIt)

"Most of the tweets are good natured. In general I think people like Slack as a product and a company," Matt says. "If I shared a name with a cable company the experience would probably be much different." But being @slack is "far more entertaining than annoying."

As a longtime software engineer, Matt even pitches in to answer questions where he can. "On rare occasions I'll help people out if they have a problem I know how to fix," he says. The most common complaint Matt helps with is from users who are frustrated that Slack has automatically turned two dashes typed together into a larger dash.

Otherwise he says, questions from users are "mostly confirming if Slack is having an outage, or questions about where something moved in the last update. Nothing super complex," Matt says.Overall, the experience has been pleasant, if odd. "It has been a weird shared experience with the people at Slack. I've become Twitter friends with a number of them, and I usually send a holiday card to their office," Matt says."My team uses Slack at work," Matt says. "I'm told we'll have to migrate [to Microsoft Teams] eventually, but we're all hoping to avoid that as long as we can."
