Bob is a fantastic representative for world hunger, but when he starts speaking out against email and how it is disruptive to ones daily activities, I gotta wonder how much extra time he must have on his hands.
Rather than reading his emails, perhaps he should be making sandwiches and fed-exing them to Somalia?
I love how it is paraphrased that it imposes an agenda on him. My postal mail delivery brings me utility bills every month....what an imposition to me this is!!! These bills distrupt my bank account!
In my business, a contract is never based upon an email or a telephone conversation. A quotation is usually submitted and followed with a written contract/purchase order agreement, of which would then be signed and dated by both parties. I feel so bad for Bob and his email problems.
Makes me wonder how his last benefit was organized contractually.

At the conference, organised by the innovation firm ?What if! , Bob Geldof said he dreaded seeing lots of e-mails in his inbox, as they imposed an agenda on him, and disrupted his own plans for the day.
A successful businessman as well as social activist, Mr Geldof also warned of the perils of a badly-phrased e-mail, which he said he knows from personal experience can cause serious commercial harm.
"The tone can be wrong", he explained. "An ill-considered e-mail can destroy a deal."
