Feedly.com for Slack - #idea-validation

Hi there,
I've come up with the idea to build a feedly like app for your Slack teams.
You would automatically get all of the links and images from your Slack channels into the app and can then curate them with team members and schedule them into your Buffer or Hootsuite account.

The problem I see is that this is kinda possible with feedly already but just with sources from the web and not with your internal findings inside of Slack.

Would you be interested in such a service and do you think that this could be valuable to someone?

Thanks a lot :)

    We thought about setting up a slack channel connected to buffer via zapier to push interesting reads to the buffer queue. Seems like another layer. Could be really useful if you have lots of 'suggesters' and someone needs to triage it

      Interesting. Is this even possible with Zapier? I feel like there are only ways to push links into Slack but not out of it? Maybe I'm wrong here.

        I haven't tried but was looking at zapier and see you can use a starred message or a message posted into a specific channel as an input and then an 'add to buffer' as an output https://zapier.com/apps/slack/integrations/buffer

          Ah yes, thats a thing. Thanks for sharing
