Ephemeral Email
We are all familiar with ephemeral messaging apps like snapchat where once the message is seen, it is deleted. This offers sufficient limited exposure for many people, hence the popularity of snapchat.
Email however remains to be a 'permanent' store of messages. There may be a market for ephemeral email apps. This project aims to provide such a service.
The main aspects of the app would be.
- 1. Compose an email and select a recipient(s)
- 2. Specify how long the email is 'alive'. This can range from minutes to years (permanent).
- 3. The recipient has the time specified to read the message and reply.
- 4. if they do not reply within the time specified - the message is deleted forever.
- 5. We may associate a 'ranking' system for those who reply within the time on a consistent basis. This will grant confidence to users as to the reliability of each user. There is also the possibility of account closures for repeat offenders.....
