So, a question came up about how to handle huge volumes of email. There are alot of different approaches out there, but here are a few ideas that work for me:

• Think before you send:

• Don't use return receipt WITH read request acknowledgments. If someone reads your email obviously, they got it.

So, you have photos in Facebook and you want to move your images to Google’s new social platform,  Google+ (note: if you are a Chrome user, you may just want to use Move2Picasa, an addon which will streamline transfer from Facebook to Google+ for photos). Or maybe you are tired of using Facebook and want to move your photos from Facebook  to something else. Or maybe you lost all of your images and Facebook has your only copy (I hope not, but it could happen).

For those who haven't heard about it, Google+ allows you to group networks and contacts in visual circles (and share information similarly to Facebook). Google + is kind of just added functionality to your Google account and if you are already have a Google account, more than likely it will be rolled out to you eventually (following the pattern of implementation for Buzz and Wave).
