I actually really enjoy the time when no one is emailing or IMing me, and usually I'm pretty productive.

我其实很享受没人打扰的安静工作时间，通常也都会很有工作效率。

Texting, emailing, IMing, DMing. These methods are great ways to keep in touch—but they also carry the risk of miscommunication.

短信、电子邮件以及其他的联络方式是保持交流的好方法，但他们也存在着沟通不畅的风险。

IMing a friend: If changing an im status seems too impersonal, then just im your friends the link. You can then have a fun chat about the blog post.

向朋友发送IM信息：如果更改IM状态影响不大，那就直接将链接通过IM发送给朋友，还可以聊聊博文。
