| 19. I blame bleedover from IM |
|
Once you've started IM'ing your coworkers it's just one more step to emailing them as if you were IM'ing them. I actually have to edit my client-facing stuff pretty carefully because I don't want to do that with them.
That said, I think your original examples are pretty innocuous. And I have (after a certain point on a project) used emoticons here and there. Yes, in emails to clients who I know well and like.  Hehehe. |

It's the dumbing down, lack of mad-communication-skillz, casualization of society. |
