"Email is dead"... is a bunch of "horse-stuff!"

[gthomas]

I cannot imagine email going away any time in the near future. The world of technology and communication has certainly changed, but the reality is that people still use email as often as they did 10 years ago. In the marketing world there has long been the saying that the money is in the list. This means that earning a living online comes from building an email list of people who you send emails to, and even today those in the know keep saying that the money is in the list. If email was dead why would so many people focus on building lists?
