In both my work and home life, I tend to think of items that are "pending" as action items until they go away, but I certainly see the beauty of being able to put them somewhere else.

I went through ...I am in the process of doing this! I went through and searched for terms and emails I could bulk tag and archive. I learned the brilliant trick of searching for the word unsubscribe and archived everything with it (after checking a couple pages) and went ahead archiving more than two years old on the theory that if I hadn't acted yet, I wouldn't. I tagged most but not all. My next step is to go through and act on everything I can resolve that's left and get it to as you say, just the pertinent things. <br /><br />At work I use inbox zero. If it is something for me to attend or do in the future it gets added to the calendar and if it is awaiting a response from someone of an event I put it in a pending folder which I check in theory every other day ish to see if there is anything I never got a response on and need to follow up with or anything. Not there yet with gmail, but it is evolving. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830274908369319526noreply@blogger.com
