Love from Africa
My friends have threatened to leave me if I keep talking about my undying love for fastmail. I need to vent.
I live in ghetto third world west africa without a computer. My email needs are not complex: it shoud be fast and reliable. I need all junkmail problems solved immediately, as any unwanted email takes hours on a slow connection. I need filters and easy interface. I love that I can send a message that seems to be from my yahoo account without having to log into loggy yahoo. I have all that I need.
But then there's all the stuff I don't need, that I can imagine loving if I were in a different situation.
And then there's the stuff I want. As I use public computers in dire conditions, disk drives are dangerous. I don't have a disk. I email files to myself. So today I notice this FILE section of the service... You have solved all of my problems. You are amazing. I love you. Marry me.
