Is email dead? spam ridden, massive time suck, and creativity killer. Will we design a better mousetrap? [link to post]

+1 for email-first checkers.

140 characters is fine for news, sharing links, etc. but I’d argue you can’t build a customer relationship from scratch that way. Email done well is direct enough to capture and hold short attention spans, as well as long-form enough to provide useful content. The vast majority of good tweets are simply springboards to useful/funny/interesting things – as standalone content, they’re not that valuable.

Oh, and until Twitter hugely upgrades its servers, Email can contain images and text side-by-side.

Not surprised Facebook made an appearance as it has been called the "new internet" for many. Most surfing is now confined to Facebook to a large degree for many users. Email has become my catchall, as I can see if I have comments to respond to on my blog or Facebook, new connection requests through LinkedIn, and new Twitter followers or DM's by going there first. Why not check email first rather than each of those separately? It is also where I do 95% of my communication with clients. Because it is multi-purpose, I can't imagine it going away any time soon. Text messaging is such a time-saver! Don't know how I survived without it. Although, when time allows, I much prefer a real conversation to a 140-character limited one.
