Organizing Email and Other Communications – April 2012 Professional Organizers Blog Carnival

These days everyone is overwhelmed with information, and it’s coming at us from every direction! This month I’ve invited organizing experts to share their advice for managing the deluge of communication we send and receive via email, snail mail, the telephone, and other media. Read on for some great tips, and please feel free to share your own ideas in the comments section.
