As I commented in Mary’s post, I think a lot of the practices which she refers to are those generated by computers set up to spam anyone they can.

Those who are attempting to exploit email as a marketing medium in a legitimate fashion would be well advised to avoid the type of practices which Mary talks about if they do not wish their messages to receive the same treatment as that of spam.

Ian’s approach toward problem solving appears to reflect a great deal of common sense, and I particularly like his point about breaking tasks down into bite sized pieces.

One trap with respect to problem solving which I think that it is all too easy to fall into is that of getting too far involved that we lose our ability to think clearly. That’s when we need to hear the basic common sense perspectives offered by people like Ian.

Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to read the other entries which you mention.

A very good round up. I’ve just had a quick look at Liz and Karen’s posts. They are both well worth a read, and I particularly like the emphasis which Liz puts upon finding your own blogging voice.

I look forward to reading the others later in the week – Mary’s discussion looks particularly interesting.
