Information Overload
I get too much information.
I probably scan 200+ emails/day passing through my Inbox at work (in that I at least check the subject line before I archive it).
I probably read 100 or so emails, in my Inbox or in various folders.
Google has a pretty active internal Buzz community.
I typically read or scan 20-50 bug reports per day.
Outside of work there’s much less: I check Google News a few times per day, I keep up with a much smaller Buzz stream externally. Sometimes I try to keep up with Google Reader although I should trim down my subscriptions.
I’m surprised I can deal with it, and I wonder what I can do to make it better, besides “cut back on how much mail I let people send to me.”
Not sure where I’m going with this, but sometimes it just feels good to type instead of read.
