I have come to loathe e-mail. Well, at least for coordination (like setting meetings) or collaboration (like working together on projects) or tasks (like answering people’s questions) or ongoing conversations (like discussion groups). I quickly get overwhelmed by all those separate messages, each of which requires a surprising amount of thought to place it in [...]

As of 3/30, Google Shared Stuff will be no more. I’m annoyed, because it was an easy bookmarklet-based way to quickly e-mail a link to someone while simultaneously saving it in an easily findable, searchable way.

As I’ve mentioned before, I rely heavily on the GTDinbox Firefox add-on [...]

As I mentioned earlier, Gmail is gradually increasing the storage space allocated to users. As of this morning, I’m at 3608 MB (see updates below):
A little over a week ago I’d used 59% of my Gmail storage space; this morning I’m down to 49%. Way cool, given how I rely on Gmail + GTDinbox for [...]

More and more available space in my Gmail account today, yay!
Aha, I thought Gmail was getting roomier!
As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve noticed over the past few days that the % of space used on my Gmail account has been steadily dropping. A week ago I was at 59% (of just under 3000 MB). Yesterday [...]
