First, you have to read “The Back-Logged Life”.
Then, you have to complete this survey. These are my numbers;
- Voice-mail messages at work: 5
- Voice-mail messages at home: 0 (does that mean I don’t have any friends?)
- Voice-mail messages on my cell: 2
- SMS messages on my cell: 0
- Hours of television on the TiVo: 0 (don’t have one!)
- E-mail messages at home: 8
- E-mail messages at work: 1121
- Items in my feed reader: 0 (I need to reconfigure it)
- Books on my nightstand: 2
- Pending projects at work: 12
- Pending projects at home: 12
Obviously, my big problem is email at work. I get about 100 per day and I never really catch up with them all. One thing I’ve started doing recently is not answering them right away. I’ve noticed that if I answer right away, then the recipient answers right away with another question, and it sort of becomes a bloated chat session. Of course, important customer emails have to get answered, but the rest of them, well…, I’ll get to them.
