Email isn't going anywhere (anytime soon), but I do think news-feed style posts with threaded comments for lots of group communication is far preferable to cc:-

  That's what Lotus Notes was, right (news-feed style posts with threaded comments). At least that how I saw it used, in the mid-late 1990s.

    Hm, I don't remember that at all. We used it for what I thought was its main purpose: shared documents. For example, bug databases and design documents. Sadly, some companies used it as their primary E-mail system and that's it. For E-mail, it sucked, and to maintain that bloated thing for only that purpose just revealed how little the company understood it. I created an issue-tracking system with it in about a day, which a few people got. But many people simply didn't understand what Lotus Notes was for.
