For several months now, I have been critically examining my work contexts, to determine what sort of work gets done best in what sort of contexts. Because so much of my work is online, it's easy for me to fail to identify different online work modes and assign tasks to those modes so that they can get done most effectively. This is very much a symptom of the overall trend of ICT convergence: It requires us to set new boundaries because it's dissolving the artificial ones. I think this is a good thing. So, Steven Berlin Johnson (whose books you should read) has also been thinking about this, and reflects on it briefly in Email: asynchronous communication, creativity and time-management.
