I've done that before. It's the only option on snow days. Definitely better for keeping things focused, and easier to spin out side discussion (especially when it requires a URL), but I still prefer the face-to-face because there's things you don't pick up otherwise. The way someone says "I'm almost finished" that makes you think there's a month of work left, for example.

Stand up once a day, but feel free to ask those 3 questions in chat whenever there's a natural cadence - first thing after login, just before lunch, and at the end of the day. It helps hold you accountable for your own plans.
