Quando NON usare assolutamente l'email...

Everyday life inside Google - by Google Press Center

Arriva un nuovo manifesto da ChangeThis, stavolta il contributo - un pdf di 14 pagine - viene da David Shipley e Will Schwalbe, già autori di ''Send: Think before you send'' uscito lo scorso aprile e pubblicato in italia per i tipi della Sperling & Kupfer.

E' evidente, oggi si fa troppo spesso un uso svagato, massicio e inopportuno della posta elettronica. "One of the biggest problems with email is that people use it reflexively: Get an email? Reply by email! Have a random thought while you are sitting next to your desktop or laptop or when your handheld is at hand? Fire off an email! Sure, there are good emails and bad emails.

But there are also a lot of emails that never should have been emails in the first place: They should have been calls, letters, visits, or nothing. Everytime you choose a form of communication other than email, or choose not to communicate at all, there’s a bonus: Simply the best way to cut down on email is to send fewer emails."

Il manifesto del giornalista del New York Times e dell' editore della Hyperion book, prendendo naturalmente spunto dall'opera appena pubblicata, stila un quanto mai opportuno elenco di 13 particolari frangenti e occasioni in cui bisognerebbe assolutamente evitare di spedire una email.
