Hi! I've worked on this during the hackathon, and after chatting with Max it has the required functionality to work:
http://stack.wmflabs.org Features: * create named rooms (shareable URL) * add yourself to the queue (remembers name) * one person can add multiple people * can pop from the stack (needs human agreement on who will be the popper) * plays sound when somebody is added to queue * after 5 minutes of stale queue plays warning sound It's kind of real-time (1s interval polling to server) and it may crash at some point, but it gets the job done for now. It's also not really secured so a mean user can probably easily crash the server, I'm assuming good faith for now. Open to comments, hope this helps!

It can be quite disruptive to those around you to sit at your desk being noisy participating in a hangout, and that rules out a large part of the office. I've done this before myself from the fifth floor collab space, where there are no permanent desks and some semi-private areas, but you cannot guarantee the availability of those spaces. When I was remote I often wondered why more people didn't do this, but when I moved to the office, I started to appreciate the difficulties with it.
