Quick Tip: A 3-Letter Timesaver
Archives: It's Good/Fun to Know
Had Charlie gone batty? Was his keyboard shorting out?
He’d just sent me a curious e-mail. It was entirely blank. But the subject line said: “Sales copy good to go. <EOM>”
“Huh?” I thought.
Trusty Google had the answer.
Turns out that “EOM” is an acronym for “end of message.” It’s often used in e-mails, when the entire content of the e-mail is contained in the subject line. That way, the recipient doesn’t have to open the e-mail at all.
A tiny, three-letter timesaver. See if it can speed up your e-mail communications today.
EOM? I’m gonna start using that one. I work in IT, and I bet I’ll be the first. Unless they’ve all done it and quit, and I’ll look like a DORK. . .oh, well, the things we do to be fabulous!!
