Bliss is an empty inbox Jul09 '07

In a world of information overload, there's no prettier sight than an empty inbox. My goal is to always keep it that way.
Every email should be attacked. Either archive it or delete it.
More importantly, avoid giving out your email address unless absolutely necessary. This limits the amount of excess junk that finds its way to your inbox.
In the long run, I hope to only use email for business or professional correspondence. If I want to share things with friends, family, etc - I use a blog, or emerging technologies like SMS.
