Rant of the Week: Communication Overkill

RC's Rants

I’ll admit as a software developer I like to avoid contact with the outside world as much as possible. Email has been fine for most situations and sometimes talking on the phone is a necessary evil. But one my biggest annoyances is when people use multiple methods of communication to send one message.
