This idea of no email is interesting. I think if the company is having issues communicating internally, they need to set a daily or weekly time to meet and collect thoughts from each division, and pass them on to the hierarchy. Email is invaluable to our mobile development business and communication. For one, many of our team members are on different time, in different parts of the world,etc. As the idea sounds interesting, it would not work for us, however I do think a new type of social circle needs to be uncovered for large corporate communication. Email is neccessary to send docs, and important media that can not easily be expressed in a brain storm session, plus I see employees being less productive if their is no email to track and reply to by date and time, efficiency, by management, etc.. .
Lest keep an eye out to see what happens, I prefer an email notification with an outcome.. Lol

They're giving up email, not electronic communication. In a development environment, email is incredibly inefficient. Instant Messaging & project management apps are much better communication tools. Email is inherently disorganized and as a result, wastes hours. When communicating with dev clients, we flatly refuse to respond to any message that isn't tracked by Basecamp or PivotalTracker.
