47、e if I want to check back at what I said to whom years ago. So what a surprise to see that I send approximately 18, 250 emails each year (roughly 50 a day). Assuming 3 minutes per email, thats about 1000 hours a year on email alone. Ive been on email since the early 90s. _36_12The answer is both yes

48、 and no. Yes, I have been able to keep in touch with family, friends, and colleagues in far-away corners of the planet with ease. _37_ But while these undoubted benefits are the reasons why I continue to email, it is not without its own cost. Most importantly, as the above analysis shows, email eats

49、 my time just as it likely eats yours. _38_ Each time a message arrives theres just the chance that it might contain something exciting, something new, something special, a new opportunity. _39_ Thats just enough to keep me checking my Inbox. But that means perhaps only 10 of the 1000 hours I spent on emails this year were actually wanted.
