BottleMail 2.0 Description

BottleMail 2.0 is  designed to be a proper and useful system for delivering email, but is totally different from regular email because both the destination (one single person) and the date when it will be delivered are unspecified. Since the sender does not know who will read the mail or when they will read it, it might seem like a meaningless exercise.
But vendors see this kind of "verbose" communication all the time in daily life. This is how people speak when they talk to themselves or when they pray.The image had when got the idea for bottle mail is the person on a desert island, writing a letter, sealing it into a bottle and throwing the bottle into the sea.
Bottle Mail sets messages adrift on the Net, the electronic sea which has spread to cover most of the earth at the end of the twentieth century. Bottle Mail is a tool to create unexpected meetings and connections between people all over the world.Bottle Mail turns upside down the traditional notion of email, which is renowned for its ability to carry messages instantaneously to someone on the opposite side of the Earth. But see Bottle Mail as uniquely suited to the Net.Flop down on this beach when you want to take a break from surfing the Net!
