Let's save our inboxes by adopting this Email Charter!
Everyone I know is drowning in email. And every hour we spend working on our groaning inboxes is simply making the problem worse for our friends and colleagues. This stressful upward spiral can only be solved by us all agreeing new ground-rules. That's why a couple weeks ago I floated the idea of an Email Charter. the idea 'went viral' and I was deluged with suggestions and comments which I've tried to weave into this final version, just launched today. http://emailcharter.org
I would absolutely love to get feedback from the brilliant TED community. Do you agree that this is an idea worth spreading? How could we improve it?

Yes!
So...
> How could we improve it?
As a TED Translator, I think you could dramatically improve the spreading by having the Charter "processed" like a TED Talk.
Here's a possible roadmap:
1) making a short (< 3 minutes) video that introduces the Charter and the website. Something like the short clip with which you announced the TEDx events;
2) Publish the video on TED.com, and let volunteers translate it;
3) Make the emailcharter.org website multilanguage, and let volunteers translate it.
Just my 2 cents. Hope you appreciate :)
