BCC Fail!

|  posted on 9/9/11 by Nancy Lyons

When you work in the world of internet technology there are few greater sins than sending a broadcast email to a large group of people and failing to BCC (blind copy) them.  I did that today.  I committed the mortal sin of emailing.  And when I called my pal Cindy for forgiveness she suggested I a) get therapy and b) get a cartoon illustrating what a dork I am to completely freak out over a seemingly silly mistake.  I have yet to call a help line.  But I did find some relief in her second suggestion and, thanks to our Creative Director, Rett Martin, I've got an illustrated depiction of my faux pas and my subsequent melt down. 

I think the moral of this story is - don't sweat the small stuff.  Also - when you receive an email like this one - do not reply to all.  That just won't end well.

We're constantly talking to each other about what's new: a project we're working on, a new site we're obsessed with, or some other geekery. We figured, why not share those conversations with you?

Welcome to our collective mind.
