Use your phone number as a handout email address

Lifehacker, the Productivity and Software Guide

Having heard my wife give out her email address to yet another soccer coach at the start of the season, it hit me. What if you used your phone number as a handout email address?

Instead of spelling some haphazard email address, she could tell them: ""It is our phone number -- 5551234@gmail.com" and be done with it.

If you give this a try, you'll find that some email apps, like Gmail, won't allow you to include your entire phone number (area code and all) without adding a letter to the mix, but with Gmail, as long as you have fewer than 8 numbers, you're okay. While you wouldn't want to use this address for everything, it seems like a potentially perfect solution for situations like Dan described - you can hand out two pieces of contact info for the price of one.

Fiji Luxury Spa Resort*Fiji Massage Spa Resort*Fiji Island Luxury Spa Hotel* Fijian Massage Therapies:

We are one of the only 5-star resorts with an oceanfront pool. We invite you to refresh in the spacious freshwater pool overlooking the Pacific, ideal for a cooling dip or serious laps.

In February, 2004, we gave the pool area a major facelift. We enlarged the pool to include an infinity edge and a shallow soaking area with umbrellas and tables. We expanded the deck area, too and added covered pergola area that provides shelter from the sun's rays. All-new deck furniture provides the perfect place to soak them up.

Or relax on deck by the pool, then stroll down to the ocean just steps away. At day's end, join us to toast another day in Paradise as the sun sinks into the horizon, then share award-winning cuisine poolside by candlelight.

Daily Yoga

Clear your mind and relax your body with a morning yoga class. (We are one of only Fiji resorts that features yoga daily.)"
