I am glad that we still have email, and i don't wish any other way. Predicting the death of emails is a trend these days, but unfortunately, none of the replacements are based on standards. Think of all the services that want email to be dead - FB, Twitter, WhatsApp, Asana - none of them are based on open standards. GMail is a great example, especially when it launched, that you can still innovate within the boundaries of standards. Twitter is a great example of what a great protocol/standard it could have been.
