Those damn kids today don’t know their history and think that .NET is 1337! 😀

Some random dude in Taiwan couldn’t browse the web (because an undersea cable broke due to a recent earthquake) and he decided that using a webserver (probably configured by him) which ran arbitrary executables mailed to it (hint: the from e-mail field is not a reliable authentication mechanism) is a sane thing to to because I need Slashdot!. Of course he made the front page on Slashdot.

Please, don’t reinvent the wheel! I’m too young to have used any of the following services, but at least I know that they’re out there:

• Accessing th Internet – offline (Google Cache because the site loads very slow). The mail address mentioned works (I just tested it) and has a response time of ~10 minutes.
• www4mail.org
