When you let a week go by without being at Inbox Zero, and allow 127 (mostly important) emails to accumulate in your Inbox, you will somehow mistype a GMail macro shortcut and DELETE all of the emails in your Inbox, and then have to individually look at all 2787 emails in your Trash folder to hunt down the important ones, and be left wondering what important ones you still missed. (I know of at least two emails that I lost for good.”Frustrating” is an understatement.)
If you’ve been expecting a reply from me, and don’t see one by tomorrow, it might not hurt to drop me another email. Sorry. I’ve learned my lesson!
Dear Marina,
How about switching from “This is going to be controversial” to “Killing myself softly with technology”. Naturally, we can debate the “softly” part at the next Saturday House.
