It would be presumptuous to call for the end of email, but it

would be wise to suggest we could use email more wisely.
Otherwise our communication goes to the dogs! This
presentation reviews when to use old-fashioned email and when
to use social web channels. You are welcome to adapt and reuse
the materials with the attribution-sharealike license. We
welcome your interaction -- comments, questions, suggestions,
shares, clips, favorites, likes and hearts.

It would be presumptuous to call for the end of email,
but it would be wise to use email more wisely.
Email is an excellent information delivery system.
The question for email senders is 'are you using email
because it is the most effective for you or the
receiver of your message?' Too often the answer is
that we send email because it's easier for us rather
than those who receive our message.
 How is one to avoid loathsome spam, email blasts and
Mass cc announcements? There are plenty of alternatives
for those using the social web and it's up to those
initiating a conversation to keep an eye on channels for
communication and to engage a conversation about how to
improve the conversation.
What if we were to think not of ourselves but those who receive
our messages? It's time to ask friends and colleagues what they
would like. Email is one of many tools in the communication
toolbox. It can and should be leveraged with tweets, blog posts,
YouTube videos, wikis and the vast array of options we have via
the social web and face-to-face communication.
Send messages others would like to receive.
