Hey Calin,
one time I heard from creating a water cooler for remote collaboration was in the Remote book from the Basecamp guys.
These are the tips for collaborating remotely mentioned in that book, taken from this review:
Not sure if that's the real origin of it, though.
Oh, by the way. We're looking for watercooler mods. Anyone interested?

I don't mind taking that!
I am interested in doing that :)
Y'all are going to have to make sure the water cooler is topped up though 😉
Yay!
You’re welcome to make one of the first posts 😄
Really apt name.. #watercooler 😁
Ah, I See You're a Man of Culture As Well
Am I going crazy or did this launch a while ago too?
It went live a little while ago but we didn’t take the final steps to make it an officially supported tag.
We actually wrote some code to make this tag show up less in the feed if you don’t follow because we didn’t want it to bother folks who are here just for technical stuff.
We might want to add the note about hiding the tag directly on the tag page for anyone who misses this post. Whaddyathink?
Yeah we should
