I posted this internally at Google, someone asked me to post it externally. To be frank, I almost didn't write it because it seemed so obvious. But isn't that the point? What's obvious to you might not be to others. So I'm happy to oblige.

Maybe this is obvious, maybe this is so generic that it's useless, but I feel it has to be written somewhere.

The time you spend on communicating something (writing a doc, an email, a bug, a comment, ...) should be proportional to the "distance" of the person receiving the message.

Distance varies on three axes I can think of:

• Physical: This one is obvious, but requires some explanation. If someone is far away from you, your bandwidth is hugely limited already. You speak to them less often, they don't get your body language, they don't get your tone, they don't get you. Make things easy for them.
• Subject matter: The less someone knows about (your project, this topic, your likely state of mind), the more you should explain. Good communication is a lot about empat

19 Sep, email from Parallels: Urgent Service Notification for Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac Users

19 Sep, tweet from me: "Urgent Service Notification for Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac Users". @ParallelsMac, your marketing is disgustingly aggressive. Stop.

19 Sep, tweet from me: @ParallelsMac If my previous message wasn't clear: I doubt I will ever choose to give you money again, ever, just because of your marketing.

19 Sep, tweet from Parallels: @aknin Message received. We want to make sure all our customers are aware, so there are no surprises if they move to Mavericks.
