Bill Gates Email goes to Junk Folder

I was looking in my hotmail junk folder and see a name that caught my eye. Between the hot housewife’s, bëttërPhàrmàcy, and others spam mail. There sat the name Bill Gates and going against my better judgment I open it up. It not like I get an email everyday from Bill. This was an executive-email that I had signed up for.

 

As I read down the email with the subject “Building Software That Is Interoperable By Design” I could not help but wonder “Interoperable”. So I added Bill Gate to my safe list, sure would hate to miss an email again if he wanted to invite me for dinner. As I look at my safe list I have seen where I have added the same newsletter address 12 times. Why is Hotmail  spamming thier own newsletters? Does the Hotmail team know who Bill Gates is?

 

So I did a search on the MSN Beta Search “Who is Bill Gate?” Let me tell you his name came up top of the page in a fancy box. My next search was “Does Hotmail like Bill Gates?”.  Now I found out something that I never knew. It was on the front page of MSN,com.  Because I use my.msn.com I have the “popular searches” out of my way and never look at them much. I search for what I need and not about others. Inside it there was Bill Gates searches News: vaccines , Images: Legos, Pets for sale , Bridge, Technology  so after searching all his links I came to the conclusion Bill pet gnaw somebody at a bridge game and he has decide to get a Lego pet after checking on the pets for sale, but first somebody needed to get a shot.

 

It looks like hotmail could save me all this trouble by becoming less Interoperable. That makes me think about something else. I will add GeorgeBush@whitehouse.gov to my safe list now.

 

Be SAFE

Hotmail trivia from http://www.little.org/blog/default.aspx


If connected hand-to-hand, the 190 million MSN Hotmail members would circle the Earth at the equator over five and a half times.

MSN Hotmail e-mail service members number more than the combined population of the world’s 20 largest cities.
If all MSN Hotmail members were standing in single file, they would line the length of the Great Wall of China or the Nile River (the longest river in the world) over 17 times.

The MSN Hotmail user base has grown more than 18 times since January 1998, which is more than the world population has grown in the last fifty years.

Since 1997, MSN® Hotmail® has grown nearly 20 times from 10 million to 190 million subscribers.
In 2001 and 2003 MSN Hotmail was featured in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s largest free Web-based e-mail service provider.
