Internet and emails has become an important thing in our modern life. For some it can be a tool to connect to people across the world. We use it in requesting information from businesses and the likes. It is also very handy for sending out information like presentations, spreadsheets and photos.

We also use it also to send same message to several contacts.There are some people however that forward everything from funny jokes, funny pictures to quotes they receive to everyone in their contact list. It is sweet of you to remember me but...

I personally don’t like receiving this nor forward any of these funny emails and jokes to the people in my mailing list without letting the person on the other side and if she or he would be interested in what the attachments contains. If so I would ask him/her too when would be the best time to send them so they can have the space ready in their inbox. It is all about respect.

I lose so much time sorting and deleting these clutter emails. Good thing I discovered a new website called forwardOn.com. This site is a great solution for the clutter mail problem.

I signed up earlier today and learned another great thing – there are benefits in using this site. Now we got your attention!

What benefits am I talking about? Rewards. When I signed up, I immediately got 5000 points and also you can earn points by referring your friends. Each friend you invite and signs up, you get 5000 points. And with that 10000 points I can redeem an Amazon Gift card or donate it to your chosen charity in the site.

Isn’t that great? Signing up was really easy and the great part is - it is free too.

That sounds really interesting. I really dislike getting random forwards too especially when it says to forward it to other people. I normally just delete without even looking at it. I only read the ones that come from very good friends who I trust. Good post. I may have to check this out.

Hi Jade thanks for showing us the trick! I'm so tired of deleting junk mails. Most of these are sent by my relatives (they think these jokes are funny) and I haven't got the guts to tell them: please keep your jokes to yourselves!

A big hello to you from a fellow expat wife blogger who happens to live in Singapore. Angie

Welcome guys, I am glad to be of service;)

It is really sometimes difficult to just tell our friends and relative not to send this things to us. It is also kinda dangerous if they don't use the bcc cause then our email add is exposed to other people they forwarded it too.
