Microsoft Teams – The Newest Realm of the Digital Townhouse!

The Digital Townhouse Project is going to look a little different this year– and we’re not sure exactly the extent of that yet– but one thing we do know? We’re adding a platform for you all to build community amongst each other, outside of established events and such: MICROSOFT TEAMS!

Microsoft Teams is similar to Slack or Discord, with several different channels in which you can hold conversation. Right now, we’ve got channels for announcements, hanging out, random thoughts and memes, and more! Delightfully enough, you can also do group video chats through this software, so you can start a meeting in any of our “social channels” and folks can come and drop in to meet you there.

Also, we’ve got some expectations and guidelines that you should read through before participating in the space. We want this to be a safe and welcoming space, and that requires some rules!

I really hope this will be a space for you all to develop community, continue developing communities you’ve already established, and make new friends. You can join the UHP Team right here.

Also: you can use it in your web browser, but also download it for your desktop or your smartphone! Download links are below.
