For years, I have been using the Inbox Zero method (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9UjeTMb3Yk) to stay sane. It really does help. I regularly empty my inbox while others seem stuck in the hell that is 9,000 unread emails.

I have known people to declare email bankruptcy. Why should anyone have to declare defeat to a productivity tool, let alone one that didn't exist when my parents were born?

Insanity!

Even with my successes reigning in email, I realize that I have it backwards. Technology should adapt to us, not the other way around.

I'm interested to see what Hey is all about.

I worked in a company who's culture was to collect unread emails and then brag about how many they had. I never understood it.
