Death of email predicted, film at 11(UTC/GMT +9)

[prog]

Most Korean students no longer bother with email. South Korea may be the most wired place on Earth, as far as per-capita accessibility goes.

Reminds of how I have been seriously pondering giving up my jmac.org email address. While I used to receive almost no spam, I passed some tipping point a while ago and get more than 100 per day now; that's easily more than 10 times the amount of legitimate mail I get, and more than 20 times that which I actually read (making modulo for mailing lists and such). I'd probably be slightly less grumpy if Apple Mail's spam filter didn't too often mark things as spam (correctly) and then put them in my inbox anyway.

(Please don't ask what email address to use unless I actually announce something. Or, er, if you don't know my email address in the first place, I guess.)

Would that be all the Korean students living in Lexington?

Ha ha ha! This is the first time this has happened to me, even though I'm aways worried I'll have something really embarrassing on my clipboard when I do it...

Fixed. (The link originally pointed to an address in Lexington, MA.)

postini is a good thing
