I find written communication - big email chains the worst for fleshing out ideas. Or even resolving bugs and problems. Written communication is great once ever

  Written is more of a "I did this, you do that", not a "What should I do" or "let's discuss what we should do". I do a lot of writing, but it's mostly brainstorming and documenting things to myself and maybe myself or my colleagues a few years down the line.

  That's only possible when you talk without a clear outline/plan and don't use the search feature. Basically if you use text like you'd use speaking/verbal communication. Otherwise, text is superior for fleshing out ideas. Nothing gets lost, you can review everything later and address every single point. Just my experience.
