We're at our two day online marketing and new media class/seminar/workshop thing ... and we're thinking...
- is email relevant?
- it's annoying
- intrusive
- time consuming
- addictive
- often poorly written with lots of seplling mistakes
- not as good as a phone call
- impersonal - cos you could see someone, but who wants to see people?
- necessary - we wouldn't be without it
- fast
- traceable - could get you into trouble - eg. when you address to the person you're writing about.
- full of spam
- fills up your inbox
- personalised fonts and auto signatures with photos of cats and comic sans writing (ugh!)
- people who leave FWD>FWD>FWD> etc! So untidy
- LOTS OF EXCLAMATION MARKS !!!!! IS THAT BAD?????
- (not so evil) Angels etc. made out of emoticons - quite clever
- LOL
- Email language hz bcum mr lk txt language >:-(
- Demands a quick response
- People who put "high priority" on every email
- People who forward really bad jokes
Okay, I think that's enough. So is email really evil? Or are there a few good features in there?
(Thanks for the photo, gagilas!)
