You really can email Santa!
14 Dec 2010I was sat with my wife discussing how late I was sending my Christmas list to Santa, and I argued that I had not missed the deadline because I was not relying on the post, I could always send an email. My wife said “how? you don’t even know his email address”.
Now, she was sort of right, but not one to be beaten, I decided to guess at his address, and send an email straight away.
I sent an email to Santa@northpole.com just to see what would happen.
Well, I was amazed, not to say pretty excited, I got an email back (I was checking my mail expecting a ‘bounce mail message’), but no, I got an
email, and it was personalised.
So don’t tell me Santa is not in the 21st century, who knows, he probably does video conferencing when dealing with rural areas.
I am going to add Santa to my mail list, you never know he might even write an article for us.
Take a look at his site http://northpole.com and Merry Christmas to you all and a very prosperous New Year.
Before I got my start in the tech industry as part of Apple’s UK Mac launch team, I was a professional drummer (notice I didn’t say musician). But once I got in, I was hooked and I’ve been involved in the tech industry, primarily software development, for over 35 years. I founded this company and I now have the enviable title of System Architect (as well as Managing Director) here at OpenCRM.
