Never understood the crazy trend around Slack. We use it at work and I don't really see what it's giving us over other IM platforms. Maybe I'm not enough of a power user to really appreciate it's greatness.
As far as why people use it; people need to communicate and sometimes they are close or far away. Hipchat, Slack ... there's other competition and they want your conversation because they likely re-sell the big data off your conversation.
