About two years ago I went on a bender, unsubscribing from all of the email lists, advertisements etc. MASSIVELY reduced the email coming in to my box. I still unsub from every valid email from advertisers, immediately upon receipt. If I need to use their company, I know how to get ahold of them. It literally took me about a month to unsub from all of the crap, but I went from hundreds of emails a day to a couple of dozen, and most of them are from clients. I am thinking of subscribing to the "quiet time" idea in the article. I don't have a blackberry, I don't do IMs at all. Email or phone, and all advertising email is unsubbed to on receipt. It has made a tremendous difference in my life. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35689822/ns/business-small_business// -- John W. Colby www.ColbyConsulting.com
