Last week in our Web Faceoff series, we took a look at one of the newest forms of web communication: the Twitter retweet . This week, though, we’ve decided to look at one of the oldest: e-mail . E-mail has been around in one form or another since the 1960s, before the Internet was even born. Today, it is the most crucial tool for communication online.
