I love this post and I come back to it time and time again. However, it is now both out of date and also needs further commenting. First, though, go take a look and enjoy the original here:
COOL CARTOON THAT EXPLAINS HOW YOUR EMAIL REPRESENTS YOU
Here are my updates, and I’d love any extras or edits you could provide to make it better:
@hotmail
- still sends out warnings about the latest email scams
- is likely from China and thinks this is a way to be more north american, much like changing their name from Wong Wing-Luen to Wayne Wong or Hsien Yang Lee to Stanford Lee – except they missed the memo that fluffybunny2259111@hotmail.com might not land them the dream job…
@gmail
- thinks that gmail is somehow more secure than hotmail
- is in denial that google is an american spy agency with sociopathic tendencies
- thinks that it’s totally ok for google to spy on their inbox and GPS location in exchange for such a great free email and creepy-accurate search engine
- says ‘I don’t have anything to hide’ when someone explains the violation of their privacy
- runs google stuff on their iphone just to be sure no one accuses them of being slave to just one task master
- is surprised, even horrified about what google has seen of their private life, yet continues to use it
- periodically watches CNN news
- Godaddy is ‘alright with them’
@icloud
- got an ipad for christmas from their kids or grandkids and since it ain’t broke why try to fix it?
- forwards videos of pets doing funny things and historic ones of when things were better
- think they are really becoming ‘techies’ and use the word ‘techie’ regularly
@outlook
- think that real business people use Microsoft
- teach business courses at the local college
- run small book keeping businesses
- pay lots of money for anti-virus software and buy a new computer (with Windows) when Windows slows it down
