With large amounts of storage available at a reasonable cost or even for free, many computer users today are sloppy about deleting e-mails, old photos, and other digital data they may no longer want or need. The average worker alone sends and receives more than 100 e-mails daily, and about 90 billion spam e-mails are sent daily. With that kind of volume, it's hard for anyone to keep a clean Inbox. But should we try? Most workers are governed by policies regarding what e-mails and documents they can delete, but what about our papers? Is there anything wrong with saving everything in case it might be needed again? Or does having that much clutter create unnecessary stress and waste our time? If we have the necessary storage, are we prudent to keep everything in case we need it again? Or are we just lazy?
