It’s extremely tough, especially in our business, to stick to that rule. I have to admit that I don’t follow it that strictly myself.

BUT, because you can connect Windows Live Mail with your MSN messenger program, you can set it so that a little notice pops up each time you receive an email, telling you who it’s from. If I see that it’s a comment awaiting moderation I’ll quickly approve it. I should have added that in there for anyone who has MSN and Windows Live Mail. It’s a great feature that saves me a lot of time.

And thanks for commenting! I look forward to seeing new posts at your blog in my feed reader

All your tips are really good. I especially like this one:

“Only open your email program twice a day.”

That can make a HUGE difference in your productivity.

I first got that idea from reading the Four Hour Work Week, although I still struggle to actually do it.
