Email Is Amazing, but People Try Their Best to Ruin It
by Alex WhiteAlex has written a lovely reflection on rediscovering the joy of email as a slower, more deliberate way to talk with people. Well worth a read if you miss when the inbox felt like a conversation, not a chore.

Well worth a read if you miss when the inbox felt like a conversation, not a chore. Alex’s blog is a one that I only discovered a couple days ago when he emailed me about my previous post. We ended up having a good old natter about all kinds of things. As is par for the course, I checked out his blog, quickly found we have a lot in common, and our love of email is one of them. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m very anal with my email and like Alex, I also look forward to checking my email every morning as there’s usually at least 1 interesting email from a reader. Today I have 5 of them to reply to (including a response from Alex) - it’s one of my favourite times of the day. Anyway, I digress. Like Alex, I love email - it’s a fantastic way to communicate with the rest of the world. It’s a tried and tested, robust tool. It’s not email that’s the problem, it’s the people who use it. Alex is also building his own CMS for HTML, which is another thing we have in common. Anyway, go read his blog. It’s great. Thanks for reading this post via RSS. RSS is great, and you're great for using it. ❤️Email Is Amazing, but People Try Their Best to Ruin It
