An Australian firm has rolled out a service through which Internet users can create a web page by sending an email.
Publishthis.email converts the contents of emails into web pages with a
unique address, the company says.
"Sharing content online should be easy,” states Nick Drewe, founder of Publishthis.email. “Users shouldn't have to worry about web hosting,
learning HTML, or even registering an account with a website building service just to create a web page."
Drewe adds that the goal is to “tear down the technical barriers to publishing
content online for the next 3 billion internet users.”
The service has users in 100 countries, and pages in multiple languages, including English, Chinese, Spanish, Russian and
Arabic.
Drewe states that users are “blogging, creating event pages, publishing
email threads, and sharing education resources."
