3D Mailbox: The stupid, it burns so much.
Daring Fireball and Tech Crunch clued me in to this foul horror posing as a new email client. Long story short, it turns your email folder into GTA 3-style 3D action.
No I'm not kidding. I wish I was. I actually tried to register for this horror movie myself but I ran into trouble. Their registration page just rejected an email address of the format "blah+blah@gmail.com".
Using the "+" sign in an email address is an entirely "legal" format according to the standards documents and actually is used to perform a valuable function.
If they are too stupid to understand that in 3D Mailbox, and obviously can't be bothered to read the standards documents that underline the product they're creating, how is anyone supposed to trust them with their email?
As for the interface... Well I suspect if you're an idiot gamer who doesn't appreciate that there are other things in life it might hold your attention. For half a day. Maybe. I also suspect that if you get a lot of email it simply won't scale at all.
