Comcast guy just drilled two holes in the kitchen wall. I never really thought about what it would take to get the cable inside. Not pretty. Ugh.

Our wings are not tired.
I don't IM. It always freaks me out when a chat window opens in GMail or FaceBook.

Yeah, I'm a ruthless deleter. I clean out my inbox at a minimum of once a day and the only thing in there is about a dozen emails that serve as reminders of things outstanding.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
If I didn't keep emails I would have been nailed on several things due to what people say they were never told about or never responded to.

I save everything, which is why the new policy of auto-deleting messages after 120 days—unless they are moved into Managed Folders archives—makes me twitchy.

I like to keep all e-mails that aren't total chaff. Having a record of conversations is very useful.

I keep essential emails. When I say I empty out my inbox every day, I delete or use folders.
For anyone interested, the Get-It-Done-Guy podcasts have some great tips for managing your inbox (and other ways to become more efficient).

Trust my rage
I like to have a record of stuff, but I also hate to have my inbox filled with crap. I should set up a system to manage that stuff, and I suppose I will once i get my work computer set up properly. Still, I like IM for stuff that I don't need a record of.

I keep my inbox and sent items ruthlessly clean. I archive the important stuff and delete the rest, as I get way too many emails to keep them all. Usually I'll delete stuff that's more than a year or two old unless it's somethinge very important.
