Me too. I prefer email because it is asynchronous. I can respond at my leisure. I use IM a bit more, but almost exclusively for work purposes (we have a distributed development team) and to talk to my wife during the work day--no other personal correspondence. I found that even in GMail's Chat, that if I set my priority to "Busy" or whatever, people still bugged me (which of course, kinda makes sense--if I didn't want to be bothered, I shouldn't be logged in). Perhaps I'm lucky--between my work account, and two personal accounts, I don't get an unreasonable amount of email per day. Perhaps 10-15 personal messages, some list traffic (which I can easily ignore), and perhaps 5-10 work messages. I've not Twittered, either.
