People would need to understand Chris' situation. He gets information overload at times. I guess its fair to wait for a response. If he does not, as he said, send him back a reminder after a week or so. Im sure it will get his reply back.
I personally have mailed Chris a couple of times. He responses like a perfect gentlemen. Give him some time to reply to you.

The "email bankruptcy" problem requires a 700 billion unread emails bailout! :-)

There is something unsettling about this post and I don't quite know what it is. I can completely understand the fact that Chris's inbox would be rather packed, especially with 8782 readers. This post just left me feeling like I should avoid reaching out because I will just fall into a pit of endless e-mails only to be ignored... even if unintentionally.

A suggestion about e-mail organization...
Download a contact form plug-in for wordpress (I use secure-contact) and tweek the subject to be a drop down. Then you can have the subjects categorized into what you frequently get e-mailed about. I.E. questions about social media, I've got a new blog, Fantastic Widget Announcement, I just wanted to tell you how cool you are, etc.
Then, at least you can filter through e-mails that don't need responses.
As for me... I'll just keep reading and commenting on your blog :).

I was already shocked and amazed you took the time to not only respond to an email I sent you (within a very short time, I might add) but I am now even more honoured that you also gave me your number with an open invitation to call and discuss further. You're a superstar and people know it. That's why the demand ;) Keep up every wonderful thing you're doing... you are impacting a lot of people in a very positive way. A rare and true gem.

call my house after 7 pm at night and i'll give someone an unsettling feeling if he'd let me near the phone which he doesn't i answered once during bedtime Jeff Pulver never messed with me again :)
the point relates how? if he doesn't get back in email enough they call "they" being fine folks with no sense of impulse control are you all ADD?

Best of luck getting out of the muck of all that email--it happens to the best of us. I think it surprised some of your writers that you'd write this, since you *are* the best of us when it comes to writing back.
Anyhow, you'll get out of your ditch soon. Someday I look forward to a post about the mixed blessing about being a thought leader...
And Kat, way to lay the smack down. Yes, we all are ADD...
