This is a typical number at Microsoft. E-mail is like highways &#8211; if you have them, traffic follows.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m an e-mail addict. Everybody at Microsoft is an addict. The future of e- mail usage is being pioneered right here. The cool thing with e-mail is that when you send it, there&#8217;s no possibility of connecting with the person on the other end. It&#8217;s better than phone answering machines, because with them, the person on the other line might actually pick up the phone and you might have to talk.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, everybody has about a 40 percent immediate cull rate &#8211; those pieces of mail you can delete immediately because of a frivolous tag line. What you read of the remaining 60 percent depends on how much of a life you have. The less of a life, the more mail you read.<\/p>\n<p>Abe has developed a &#8220;rules-based&#8221; software program that anticipates his e- mail preferences and sifts and culls accordingly. I guess that&#8217;s sort of like Antonella&#8217;s personal secretary program for cats. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>je suis en train de lire le roman microserfs, \u00e9crit par douglas coupland (generation x) il y a 10 ans. \u00e7a parle de jeunes gens qui travaillent chez microsoft, puis qui partent dans la silicon valley fonder une startup nomm\u00e9e oop!
