The very first email was sent 35 years ago. Ray Tomlinson sent that first email message, and it was sent from one computer, across the ARPANET, to another computer---sitting right next to the first one. What was the message? Something like Alexander Graham Bell's "Watson, come here. I need you"? Perhaps some geeky-er version of "one giant leap for mankind"? Nope. According to Mr. Tomlinson, "The test messages were entirely forgettable and I have, therefore, forgotten them. Most likely the first message was QUERTYIOP or something similar." Today, something like 60 billion emails are sent every day (more stats).
