M-e-Mail...
with GMail's spread,the holy war of eMail began on the grounds of Information Superhighway. Yahoo!'s 100Mb enhancement is the first surprise to the users. Remember there is no place for the second rankers. Its all about users honey !
Well! On the long wait @ Castro for the Line 51 that takes me to Carnegie, I was analyzing some pattern of eMail and its uses. Ofcourse I started analyzing my use..
I use eMail for tacit knowledge and for storage...I was thinking of a PKMS with efficient searching. Now GMail is all about searching your mails with in a few second.
Does that mean Mails need no more be organized ? I was happy @ the first glare of this thought. I realized that human brains have unique patterns of organizing information so the challenge is to make the best use of "Information around us".
The law of diminshing returns holds good for the Information also and in the series of articles that will follow, I have made up my mind to write about the information & eMail..
