The world's coolest email program

Is not this.

Before you think this is some sort of fake video for the voice–over, take a look at the 3D Mailbox website. They're totally serial, you guys.

[Thanks, TechCrunch]

On another, more sane, note, there's a new site called Sentenc.es. Yes, that's the top level domain for Spain, so there's no .com on the end. But the site is dedicated to getting email replies quickly:

The Problem

E-mail takes too long to respond to, resulting in continuous inbox overflow for those who receive a lot of it.

The Solution

Treat all email responses like SMS text messages, using a set number of letters per response. Since it’s too hard to count letters, we count sentences instead.

sentenc.es is a personal policy that all email responses regardless of recipient or subject will be a pre-determined number sentences or less. It’s that simple.


From the chatter I've heard on the internets, the five sentenc.es seems to be the most popular at the start. Simply adding "http://five.sentenc.es/" to your email signature lets people know why you're no longer writing your usual magnum opus.
