More and more, I don't depend on email for communication. I'll check it once in a while, but not religiously. The fact is that most email is useless. Anything of urgency can be handled with a phone call or face-to-face interaction. Furthermore, having your friends and family with you on Twitter, the people who really matter to you, takes care of most of the email in your life.

At this point, I'm willing to accept spam as a part of my inbox. If an important document or such is emailed to me, the sender can call me and let me know so that I can look for it. With the increase in social media, email is becoming a means of transport rather than a means for communication.

What do you think?
