Today in computer class I learned a lot of interesting things about e-mail and composing mails. I never new that cc means: carbon copy" and bbc means "blind carbon copy". it's actally pretty fun. After we learned how to do that, I went home and I tried it on my friends.One of my friends came from brampton, to my house I showed her how to do it and she was amazed. Sounds kind of wierd huh? Mr. case also showed us how to attach files on g-mail and he showed us a gooyie account and showed us what are the facilities in that e-mail. there was games, a spell check and other cool stuff.
