I've used Discord pretty much from the start, and it has been an excellent way to stay in touch with friends and have a group space for SLU and VVO. If you have a group or even just some friends you want a convenient way to be able to IM and voice chat with, it's a fantastic resource to have and it is free. PS - join the VVO Discord :p

I have just set it up and am testing it for holding office hours.

One thing I love about Discord is you can be in multiple servers at the same time. Also, as long as the server supports it, you can have a different name on each server separate from your underlying user name.

We've been using it for our tabletop rpg groups, even if we're using roll20 too - the voice is a lot better, for one thing, and being able to split off things is wonderful.
