Rest in Peace, Email 1965? – ?2010

If you believe Facebook’s Sheryl Sandberg’s com­ments at the recent Nielsen’s Con­sumer 360 con­fer­ence, then Email is set to die-off in only a few years, but if you read Aus­tin Carr’s recent Open Thread art­icle on Fast­Com­pany I think you see a far more likely scen­ario emerge, i.e. some sort of phased trans­ition or con­tinual upgrade…

Any­way, to appro­pri­ately mark the passing of such an import­ant part of all our lives, the pro­fes­sional lovely lady Beth Kanter sug­ges­ted I carve a memorial tomb­stone (using JJ Chandler’s Tomb­stone Gen­er­ator tool).

This is what I came up with but please add your own sug­ges­tions in the comments:
