Slack has been creating a unique social graph, unlike: Facebook is for your friends and family Twitter is for people you admire LinkedIn is for people you've worked with before or met at an event Slack is for people you work with today When users login via Slack, sites can now connect people with their team. Quip, one of their launch partners, is a perfect use case for this (see here). Product Hunt overlaps with professional and personal interests. Perhaps we should add a Sign in with Slack option. 😊 More details comparing it to Facebook Connect by TechCrunch's @ingridlunden and @joshconstine right here.

Another killing shot by team @slack..!! Thanks for sharing this @rrhoover .. You are always first to bring it up.. (Y)

@rrhoover can't say this was unexpected. Seemed like a foregone conclusion the second you signed up for your second Slack team or integrated your first App or Bot with them. And totally agree about the social graph, or as some have said, THE professional social graph(s). When people ask me what's so special about it, I just bring up the multiple examples of interacting with top SMEs on the fastest growing industries from leading orgs and companies by just saying hi, in a casual and private atmosphere. Add to that the ability to authenticate with multiple teams and different creds from the same interface on any device, well, how can you beat that? It's the product. A damn good product. (The people there aren't so bad either!)

This is incredible, most agencies are using slack and other software/web products., signing up with slack would make life easier.., #slack

Love it! If you are dying to check out Slack but aren't part of a company that uses it, feel free to join the Slack community I started at http://www.learnslack.com.

I can't tell you how many nights I woke up in a cold sweat, clutching my Apple Mouse, crying out loud, "Why can't I authenticate with Slack? I authenticate everything into Slack, but they just take, take, take. I, no, we are building our lives around Slack. We're even bringing our bots too. Why don't they just take my info, and give me a token? Then they can have all of me. ALL OF ME!" So yeah, I'm happy. On the serious tip... If this saves my future users one less step with authenticating a 3rd party API/service with my 3rd party Slackbot(s), making that process more seamless, well, I'm going to fly out there to a MeetUp to hug people.

I still want to know where slack stands on free communities. Lots of ideas for this, but if they shut down large free communities like they have been then this limits what you can do. I would love to see them support large free communities :).

This is a great move by @slack - They are doing a great job creating a platform that lends itself to becoming a place where people live. I love that I can use it to communicate with my team, order a lyft, start a hangout, import a feed of the social posts I care about, and even use it as a real-time marketo alert platform. Fact: I <3 #Slack!

We had a blast building Quip's all-new Slack integration, launched TODAY. With Quip for Slack, you can add documents, spreadsheets, and checklists to your Slack team. Best of all, Sign in with Slack makes the team set-up process a breeze! Thanks to @sean_a_rose and the whole team at Slack for the deep collab that make this possible. https://www.producthunt.com/tech...

I think it makes sense to have this integration for our service, it should attract co-workers with this, the kind of end users that I'm looking for. Awesomeness!

Hi, we partnered wit Slack and integrated the button into https://slackline.io for the launch. There are some things and caveats to consider when integrating it, so I wrote a quick post commenting on those: https://medium.com/@ernesto_jime... Hopefully it'll be useful :)

Sign-in with Slack is a great feature, and we're proud to have partnered with them for the feature launch. It enables us a http://www.smooz.io to offer a shared workspace between two slack teams, including shared channel and todo list

Evaluated slack to use for my support channel, but had to ditch it because the free version was to limited and I am not VC backed. I am using Gitter now and are very happy with it. It is free, has a sign-in button, well integrated with GitHub and what not. Still I give slack sign in my upvote for the effort they put into the service! Good work! Keep it up! :-). When Auth0 integrate sign in with Slack in their social connections I will be considering swapping it in for one of Facebook or Twitter log-in. How many people have Slack, Twitter, Facebook or GitHub accounts?

Somebody knows where can i get the slack button ¨SEND TO SLACK¨?

Great move by Slack — curious which well known companies will be first to adopt it. 🔮

Slack has definitely been trying to target more than just messaging. It's becoming more and more ubiquitous in big business.

Been waiting for this for quite a while! 🔥 The way email is set up we haven't had a way to do any form of single sign-on with internal applications that we develop. Slack is used by the entire company and will now allow us to eliminate the need for multiple accounts.
Steven Rueter
Very cool, because no devs that I know use LinkedIn sign in anyway. Props to @slackhq
Patrick Sullivan
Love the potential uses of this! Slack is doing some awesome things 👏

This is awesome! Quip + Slack will be killer https://quip.com/slack
