The downgrading of email is happening in the US, in my experience. At my work we use Slack continuously, both for communicating with team members and for reaching out to other people at the company. I often go more than a week without checking my email. I can’t remember when the last time an important email came through. As for cold-emailing, I’ve never heard this term before. I’ve certainly never established any sort of relationship through cold-emailing anyone (or being cold-emailed), and I’ve been working professionally for more than 24 years. Maybe this is peculiar to certain job types. |

It's just cold calling, by email, isn't it? Plenty of people write to me cold off HN and I write back to them. At work it's also fairly common to get emailed by someone selling some service, right? Salespeople have their own way to find the people they need.
