President-elect Barack Obama may soon have to give up not only his (gasp!) Blackberry, but all email correspondence as well once he becomes president, the New York Times reported recently.
For Obama — just as it would be for many of us — that is a huge sacrifice. Some of us might opt not to become president if we had to stop email, IM, Facebook/MySpace messages, texting and the like. It’s a deal-breaker.
Many of us, in fact, have a hard time staying away from email for more than a day or so. What about you?
Could you give up email for four years? How about for a week?
And if you have done it, what have your experiences been?
And if you had to rethink email, what would be a better communication tool/solution?
I’d love to hear your ideas! Share in the comments.
