Ping
The act of sending a very small amount of data to an end point. Ping is used in computer science to illicit a response from a target server to test it’s connection. Ping is also a term used by Slack users to @ someone or send them a direct message (DM). Users might say something along the lines of “Ping me when the meeting starts.”
Birgit Pauli-Haack (@bph) on Slack with the link, and she will add it as soon as possible.
