Happy Birthday email!


40 years ago the first email was born. 40 years! What a way to take over the world, from some weird communication tool between nerds to a life-encompassing way of communicating.

But will email add another decade? I dare think not: if you look at kids' behaviour these days they hardly ever use email. They never open a Smartschool inbox unless they absolutely have to, never check their g-mail (or, when older, hotmail) accounts and in general are becoming less and less email-savvy. At least, ours are. It's all (Facebook) messaging these days.(With thanks to Mashable)

This is the stupidest fucking article I've ever read. What kind of moron thinks that email won't last for another 10 years? Have you heard of something called "business"? I hear they use email all the time.

You dumb fuck.
