Storyline in Teams: THE solution for ‘working out loud’?

In a move that will confuse/annoy some in the learning industry, Microsoft have chosen the name “Storyline” for new functionality in Teams:

Just as Teams bundling has reduce the appeal of separate task managers, chat (i.e. Slack), and other tools, Storyline appears to be a very nice solution to replace any legacy Enterprise Social Networks (ESNs) that are out there. Indeed, I suggested Teams would go this way back in 2017.

The solution seems to be a nice way to do internal coms from within Teams, but outside of chats/teams, it will be interesting to see if this gets much traction. Presumably, anyone who really wanted to do this in Teams already has a team setup for their staff body, office, or other structure where such broadcasts were needed/desired. All in all, an interesting one if annoying for us Articulate users.
