Know Your E-mail Address
Posted by Christopher Smith
I’ve been on the Internet a long time. As a consequence, I have some very short (i.e. not chris13123124@yahoo.com) e-mail addresses on places like Yahoo Mail and Gmail (well, in the case of Gmail it’s because I have friends who worked there when Gmail came online for the first time). Some people think this is cool. In practice, it turns out to be a PITA, by function of incredibly stupid people who don’t know their own e-mail address. I’m sorry folks, but it is the 21st century. If you don’t know what your e-mail address is you shouldn’t be on the Internet. More importantly, you shouldn’t be guessing by putting in my e-mail address instead.
