What is Inbox Zero? Inbox Zero is a thing that was cooked up by Merlin Mann, of 43fold​ers​.com. It’s about how to reclaim your email, your atten­tion, and your life. That “zero?” It’s not how many mes­sages are in your inbox–it’s how much of your own brain is in that inbox. Especially when you don’t want it to be. That’s it.
