Some of us have created a chat space in Slack.  Its not an official works space, more like a tearoom thing.

There are a couple of ‘channels’ or rooms – one for general chit chat (general) and one for just playing in (random).  If this is useful for you, you can create your own team rooms as well.

If you want to join in:
