Mayday, May Day
Phew. More than two months without an update.
I've been swamped, to the point of being overwhelmed - you know what I mean? You don't? Well, then you're lucky and I'm not going to try to explain it to you.
While you're waiting for updates from me, you can read these stories about - and tips for - dealing with email overload:
- The New York Times covered the detrimental effects email has on focusing on important things. (Naturally enough, the article appeared a the start of February - two full weeks before my last entry.)
- The Harvard Business School gives some tips to master (sic) email overload.
- A COO takes stock of eight years of email.
- Despite his position, Donald Knuth, Computer Science Professor Emeritus at Stanford University, long ago decided to drop email completely. (Maybe I should consider the same.)
