That was then, and this is now. Email has become a zombie that doesn&#8217;t realize that it\u2019s dead and falling apart, a vampire that sucks your life&#8217;s blood away slowly each night. You&#8217;ve probably noticed this yourself. Jones has put email behind him. In an attempt to atone for his part for inflicting email on UNC, he is exploring alternatives to email with a shotgun and a wooden stake (and Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc.) as his tools. This talk with touch on the sad beginnings of email, offer some atonement for Jones&#8217; part in the mess, and discuss trends and alternatives needed to achieve the Logic and Destiny of #noemail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ll be one of the speakers in this fall&#8217;s Fidelity Investments &#8220;Leadership in Technology&#8221; Executive Speakers Series at the North Carolina State University Computer Science Department on Thursday October 18 at 6 pm.
