A Fresh View Over Email Management
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Most of the text in the book are good practices that have been already beaten to death in many other publications, online or in physical media. Nevertheless, the method to organize the emails in folders (C.O.A.T.) according to priority and how everything comes together is an invaluable advice. I was reluctant at the beginning, but as soon as I started applying the recommendations, my email productivity started to improve immediately. If you're spending more than 45min to 1hr a day on email, you must read this book.
Good practical advice in Hamster Revolution
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The book is a quick read that leaves you with a couple of actionable concepts that appear to have time-saving potential. The small section on different methods of categorization was worth the purchase price alone. The email tips are definitely worthwhile and the filing system advice falls right in line. Well done!

I am looking forward to purchasing a copy for every employee in hopes to tame them. It is about time someone has approached this subject in a simplistic yet effective manner. Now that I have found a way to get off the wheel, it is time to start figuring a way to get out of the cage. Action: A must read and immediate implement

Practical and fun
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book gives practical, insightful solutions to the problem of e-mail overload, but does it in a fun, entertaining way. It's only after I finished it that I realized how much useful information is packed into the story. I liked this much better than Who Moved My Cheese and other business motivational books.
