A friend of mine sent me this link to a new pyramid scheme: http://www.vmdirect.com/
It requires Java (preferably 1.4.2). Here's a video email from him: http://www.vmdirect.com/dvmuser/viewemail.jspx?ClientUser=8a81b283-fb5f520f-00fb-5f74b9e1-016c&sent=200403&rcpt=8a81b283-fb5f520f-00fb-5f74bb4f-016e if anyone cares to look (again, ya gotta have Java installed). I took a quick look for RFC's regarding video email but it looks like I could easily spend the rest of the day learning about this. I'm betting that someone on the list already knows. I don't get involved in pyramid schemes, but I'm curious about the tech and whether there are RFCs coming down the pike that already cover this type of stuff. I suppose that my friend will make a small pile of money. I doubt that he'll make significant money over the long term, but I always seem to underestimate people's capacity for stupidity. Maybe, as he predicts, next year there really will be a million people paying $5 a month for the ability to send video emails. Whatever. I'd just like to hear everyone else's take on this.
