Email bankruptcy

Email bankruptcy (or e- mail bankruptcy, Eng. Bankruptcy email ) is the term used to describe the condition when the large amount of unread or unprocessed emails no longer appear manageable. The term was created in 2002 by MIT professor Sherry Turkle and made ​​popular by the American law professor Lawrence Lessig, 2004.

As more and more people no longer cope with the daily e -mail traffic, they delete their inbox complete, and send to all known contacts an e -mail with a request to forward all important messages again. The only way out of the dilemma of communication seems to be a complete fresh start.
