Why Email Is Still The Most Adopted Collaboration Tool

An anonymous reader writes "Isaac Garcia, the founder of a Web 2.0 Collaboration Software company, writes bluntly about why Email is still the preferred and most adopted collaboration solution around. 'So, why are Collaboration Software Vendors (Central Desktop included), keen on vilifying email and so quick to promise a practical alternative to the chaos of email? And, if the vendor's software is so much better than email, than why do users revert back to email as soon as they hit a snag in the system? Why do users refuse to adopt collaboration software?'"

How in the world did people communicate before email?

How in the world did people communicate before computers ?

How in the world did people communicate before telephones ?

How in the world did people communicate before Morse code?

How in the world did people communicate before paper ?

You know, not everybody in the world has their ass sat in a ferkin office all day ! Some of us actually produce real world products. Stuff that will still be there when the power goes out, like buildings, roads, reservoirs, ships, cars, etc etc. I suggest you get a real world job, get your hands dirty, cut and bruised - just to curb your precious attitude.
