Inbox Zero is a system for handling your email that greatly speeds up your workflow by reducing uncertainty. By the time you've mastered the Digital Fluency module, you'll have an Inbox Zero system setup and humming along nicely.
You probably have an email or two that's been sitting in your inbox for a while. Maybe it's a reminder to do some task that you keep putting off. Maybe it's an article you'd like to read later. What's going on here?
Email clients are great for collecting and responding to emails, but make for terrible todo lists, task managers, and reference apps. The goal of Inbox Zero is to move every email to an application that’s better at handling that task. This may sound like a pain, but it actually saves a ton of time by removing uncertainty about each email. A system like this makes it harder for tasks to fall through the cracks (or rather, get buried by the unending pile of emails).
