If I had a penny for...

[simpo two]

... every e-mail ever sent, how rich would I be?

[2 Smokin Barrels]

Very rich, but probably just as dull

I hope this helps.

Errmm... very very rich??

Hope that helps?

(I'm sure someone will be along with a real figure soon enough).

only a rough guess, but you'd probably have something like:

the number of emails sent in pence

Edited to add the no doubt?

Hmmm..2 Smokin Barrels and 2bit have the same first name.

I'm very bored so did some digging.

In March 2000, it was estimated that there were around 570 million email boxes worldwide, therefore an estimate of around 500 billion messages for the year 2000.

www.sims.berkeley.edu/research/projects/how-much-info/internet/emaildetails.html

That has presumably increased 10s or even 100s of times in the last 5 years.

So yes, you would be fairly well off.

Well, you would only have £109 if it was a penny per post.

Yeh. I'm getting fed up with it.

I knew there was a 'shot2bits' on the Lotus forum (joined after me) and now '2 smokin Barrels'.


They're trying to tell me something...

I'm going to change my username.
