Would anyone be interested in an Austrian Slack group?
[Slack](http://slack.com) is the app that all those cool new startups use to communicate internally, but it is also used as a way for large communities to communicate and discuss, and it is rather good at what it does. With the Mises.org forums shutdown, it's difficult for us Austrians to discuss in real-time other than posting the occasional post on Reddit. With that being said, would anyone be interested in creating and joining a Slack group for Austrian Economics? I've already created one at http://ift.tt/20v7ycm but I wanted to post here to gauge interest. PM me your email and I can invite you if you're interested in joining.
