Kill Email

| | Comments (0)
Do we really need email anymore? If we don't solve the spam problem soon, maybe killing email is the best solution. Most of the people I email, I can talk to on IRC/iChat/web discussions/RSS feeds/whatever.

About 5% of the email I get is NOT junk. Why bother anymore? I used to think of different ways to fix SMTP and the infrastructure, but maybe it's time to just stop using it. Remember when you thought you couldn't live without Usenet? use.perl.org
