Sounds awesome! We are in the process of revamping our sheets internally and would love to do something similar. Anything you could share on the subject?

Same here we are using it for most of our commits. When someone is done with their changes, they issue a PR which is reviewed by one or two team members before being rejected or merged by saying LGTM.

That would be great. I can not use Kit for this exact reason.

It is important to note that everybody is using Wechat in China. From the colleague, work relations, landlord, to the convenience store around the corner. Not sharing the phone number but only Wechat is quite popular.

Anyway, I do share your concerns, it is however always the case for all business related apps and tools. Where do Slack stand in that regards?

Sweet. Any documentation to point at? I am trying to stream the microphone of my iPhone through Safari and could not find any compelling way to do so, with plugins or anything else.

Very interesting. Still trying to find a way to stream audio back from the Safari browser to a local server. No luck so far, ang thoughts perhaps?

Interesting subject. Any links to share on the current and proposed approach?

Again I really appreciate the angle. Working in the technology sector I am wondering what is limiting Whatsapp to expand the features or if the are limiting the features on purpose. I would really like to understand the product design decision.

Very interesting angle. I am heavily using WeChat on a daily basis for all purpose: keep in touch with friends, read news, share content (audio, video, articles, pdf, etc.), call people worldwide (very good video stream in China), get alerts from servers, quickly reach distributed teams, pay in restaurants or bars, order train tickets, transfer money to friends, pay online, top up my mobile, etc.

It is by far the app that I use the most on my mobile. For a lot of my contacts, I do not have their phone numbers, email address or full name. I also believe I do not know anybody that do not have a WeChat account (from my landlord, the restaurant down my work to the legal contact of some of our contracts).

I will be leaving Asia soon, I am not sure what will replace this while settling in Europe. My phone could only use WeChat, I will not see big differences, save for emails. What other apps are so central for other markets? I merely use Whatsapp but it is far from having the same extend of functionalities nor such a complete experience.

No you can not, only Dididache (滴滴打车) through the WeChat wallet.

It seems that it will indeed allow to push things forward. Now to see what and who the concurrents have in their pockets.
