Email or E-Mail or Electronic Communication

by DJ Waldow on October 28, 2008 · 0 comments

As with many conversations these past few months, it started with a simple tweet by @chadswhite (aka, Chad White of eec and Retail Email Blog fame). Chad and the eec started a new Facebook group called, “I know how to spell email.” According to the page description, this group was created to, “help convince publishers and the dictionary holdouts that they’re behind the times with their hyphenated spelling. Email has evolved from its “electronic mail” roots, and so has the spelling.” As of this writing, the group already claims over 60 members! (nudge: Join Now).

Chad’s post created a mini-buzz / debate around Bronto (see below):

I will not attempt to recreate the great conversation on this blog that is currently happening within the Facebook Group. I think where I stand is clear (hint: I joined “I know how to spell email” group). My recommendation?

  1. Go to Facebook Group
  2. Join
  3. Start a discussion
  4. Write on the wall
  5. Connect with others
  6. Debate, discuss, get involved

What are you waiting for?
