JAKARTA - During the pandemic, not a few people miss the office atmosphere. Especially for small talk and gossip among colleagues.

For that reason, Slack launched Slack Huddles, which is now debuting as a voice call. Slack users love Huddles for its speed.

In a thread tweeted by Slack's SVP, Noah Desai Weiss, said that Microsoft found people spent 2.5 times more in meetings over the past two years.

Slack eventually grew into video calling. Huddles videos can be opened in a separate window and you have the option to blur your background.

The Huddles update now also allows you to have multiple multi-person screens. This means that several people on it will be able to share their respective screens.

Furthermore, you can also draw on the shared screen and use the live cursor feature as a visual aid when you are discussing something specific.

Slack Huddles also set up emoji reactions to give it a more fun visual effect. There are new animation effects, such as confetti and clapping.

You can also share files, reactions, emojis, and many other formats in the Slack messaging tool. When Huddles ends, the entire thread will be saved to the channel, and you can search for it in the future.
