I wish I could remember where I first seen this so that I could give appropriate credit, but there’s an article on the Microsoft web site entitled 4 Ways to Take Control of Your E-mail Inbox.
If you’re like me, you get A LOT of e-mail on a daily basis. I’ve been at work a whole two days, I think, in the last two weeks and I haven’t hardly read any of it. I imagine when I get back to the office (on Tuesday), I’ll spend at least the first day simply catching up on e-mail.
I’m one who usually reads e-mails as they come in, just to see if they’re important, but then usually close them thinking “I’ll take care of that later.” Then I usually don’t get back to it for a day or two, when there’s a bit of a “lull” — or until the original sender “reminds” me about it.
Anyways, I think this is a pretty good article and I’m going to print it out and stick it on my bulletin board in my office so that maybe I’ll remember how to keep control of my mail.
