Do Me a Favor and Change Your Email Signature
- FatalLogic 11y agoOK, but only if you do me a favor and disable that enormously irritating popup ad
- itsybitsycoder 11y agoAnd fix the grammar. And fix the annoying thing where about 2-3" of the whitespace to the left and right of the thumbnails cause a full size image to pop up. And the glitchy little header effect that doesn't seem to serve any real purpose except to get in my way when I want to re-read a previous paragraph. This is a seriously unpleasant website to use.

- jlgaddis 11y agoI realize that the great majority of people view their e-mails in HTML but some of us still prefer plain-text and none of the e-mail signatures highlighted in the article would be viewable by me. From RFC 1855 [0], "Netiquette Guidelines": If you include a signature keep it short. Rule of thumb is no longer than 4 lines. My .signature is two lines (not counting the "dash-dash-space" delimiter): my full name and e-mail on line one and my title and phone number on line two. If you need other information about me or my company, you can send me an e-mail or give me a call to get it. A huge pet peeve of mine is the legal disclaimers and I will often respond to an e-mail that includes one with my own that's similar to the one mentioned in the article, just to be a snarky asshole.
