With New Inbox Feature, Asana Is Looking More Like That Email Slayer Were All Longing For

Screen Shot 2012-06-27 at 7.50.59 AMEmail. Everybody hates it but no tech company has figured out how to replace its old post-office metaphor with something more intuitive for the modern world. But Asana, the high-profile task management company started by early Facebookers, is taking a shot at this goal with a new feature called Inbox.This isn't a direct competitor to email, though, as cofounder Justin Rosenstein related to me in a meeting earlier this week.Instead, as he described it, the company is combining the most useful parts of email, plus activity feeds, notifications and other types of messaging systems that you'll see on sites like Facebook and Twitter. The result is a central column of new information flowing through, showing you all the activity happening with you and your colleagues within Asana.
