Email and Blogs and communication

One of the huge risks we run into with email and blog land communication is that it can lead to miscommunication. For instance, I am learning that when there is a serious issue and when there is steaming heat in the communication it is best not to email. Email can inflict tones that lead to false conclusions.

In Blog Land the same is often true. However, I do believe there is greater room for heated discussion. Actually I love the open exchange and world viewing conversations.

However, I am learning that before jumping to certain conclusions more questions should be asked and if the steam rolls let her roll.

Until next time, which will be soon, I'll be back for some honest and heated (hopefully) dialogue filled with questions that need answers.

I've often felt the opposite - a blog response leaves one open to a bunch of others chiming in, when all you wanted to do is clarify a conversation with one person.

E-mail allows you to clarify and dialogue, without the whole world dragging the conversation off to tangents. Also, e-mail lets me tell you I personally care, and your response also tells me you care (as does the lack of response).

Of course you know where I stand. I disagree but respect your views.
