Web 2.0 Expo - Escape your Inbox
I like this for a couple of reasons. I am flooded and often interrupted by email. If I am not receiving email, I am at times at a loss for what I need to be working on. Not that there aren't things to work on. There are. It's just that email indicates a problem or question that needs my attention. Or so I think. And I drop too many other items and focus only on the problems and issues. Innovation, direction, contemplation are projects for the weekend. Another reason I like this is the open community model. I'm bothered that I my conversations with my communities (faculty and students) are so private. I repeat the same email to so many. Terribly inefficient. So, I like this. Now, what am I going to do about it?
