Here’s the article, by Elisabeth Vene, followed by Google’s somewhat fractured translation. (I don’t know where the heck Google came up with the “SHEBANG” part.)

Gå i mejlkonkurs – få ett liv

Undrar du hur det känns att ha en alldeles tom inkorg? Gå i mejlkonkurs och starta ett nytt liv.

Det finns ett radikalt sätt att hantera sina mejl: kasta allihop och meddela kontakterna att man har gått i mejlkonkurs.

-?Jag kände mig lätt och fri. Fast känslan varade bara i ungefär i två minuter, innan ett nytt meddelande poppade upp på skärmen, berättar Wade Roush på den amerikanska nyhetssajten Xconomy.

Wade Roush fick rådet att göra sig av med rubbet när han var uppe i 15?000 ohanterade mejl. Han fuskade lite genom att arkivera dem i ett Gmail-konto på nätet. Men han slipper

i alla fall se dem varje dag, och han har meddelat sina kontakter vad han har hittat på.

Hädanefter tänker han följa it-experten Mark Hursts råd och tömma inboxen åtminstone en gång per arbetsdag.

Translation:

Join the email bankruptcy – get a life

Do you wonder how it feels to have a completely empty inbox? Join the email bankruptcy and start a new life.

There is a radical way to manage their email: throw them all and inform the contacts that we have been in email bankruptcy.

- ‘I felt easy and free. Real feeling only lasted for about two minutes, before a new message popped up on screen, “says Wade Roush in the American news site Xconomy.

Wade Roush was advised to discard SHEBANG when he was up at 15? 000 unmanaged email. He cheated a bit by archiving them in a Gmail account on the web. But he do not have to

in all cases to see them every day, and he has informed his contacts that he has invented.

Henceforth, he intends to follow the IT experts Mark Hurst advice and empty inbox at least once a day.

The truth is that I’ve fallen off the “empty inbox” bandwagon a bit. In fact, my inbox is back up to about 3,000 messages right now. So I’m about to archive everything and start fresh.

I think that the key to succeeding with a “zero inbox” approach is to be pretty religious about it. If you neglect to empty your inbox for even one weekday, it becomes twice as hard to do it the next day, and three times as hard the day after that, et cetera.
