Luis Suarez has been engaged in a 'no email' experiment for six months now (my communications with him when I visited the Canary Islands were all in Facebook). Why? "E-mail is, probably, not the best of tools out there to encourage open, public and transparent collaboration and knowledge sharing activities amongst knowledge workers and as such, six months ago I decided to stop using e-mail for such tasks." Sounds good to me. A note of caution, though. Dave Pollard, discussing abandoning email, circulates a fictitious 'memo to all staff' wherein the use of email is prohibited. Which misses the point. Decisions about communications must be personal and based on one's own convictions. The minute you start telling people how they must communicate with one another, you've destroyed the organization.
