So apparently some large corporations in America are ditching email completely. Here’s how it works:

“Do you want to meet for lunch?” - Messenger.
“The QA team have a meeting at 12″ - Employee blog + RSS
Anything else - Wiki.

Wow! What an elegant solution to the spam nightmare - lose email completely. Isn’t it always the way that such hard problems just require being approached from a completely different angle: Instead of: “How do we fix email?” we ask: “How do we replace email?”
