Check It Continuously or Wait - The E-mail Debate!

"E-mail is a nasty little thing when you really think about it. It enables us to communicate information faster than any other media available today, is flexible enough to allow us to use it both professionally (e.g. sending documents for review) and privately (e.g. sending pictures of our kids and pets), and is reckless enough to give birth to the most heinous annoyance of the 21st century thus far: SPAM. E-mail, love it or hate it, is here to stay - which prompts me to question how we use it. Last summer we had an interesting discussion about E-mail organization strategies, which revealed that there seem to be two types of E-mailers, those with clean inboxes and those with multiple pieces of E-mail keeping the inbox nicely stocked. Today I'd like to address a different yet related question: How often do you check E-mail?"Jon Westfall over on Pocket PC Thoughts wrote a great piece about how he deals with email, and the struggle he has with trying to balance productivity with the need to stay in touch over email. Definitely give it a read and comment in the thread where we're discussing it.
