Attention, email software developers of the world: I have an Idea. See, I receive a lot of cc's. A lot of cc's. Sometimes it's legitimately good FYI information, usually it's just the "I copied this guy in case I'm gonna get in trouble" sort of thing. Whole conversations, entire discussion threads, occur in these cc's of mine, in which I rarely need to get involved or even read through. At the beginning of the day I'll often sort by subject in Outlook, and just blow away whole subject lines to clear information quickly.

So,

How about a button in Outlook that marks a subject line as something I don't need to read? It could be called CONDEMN. You're getting cc'd on something that doesn't actually matter to you, you just hit Condemn and it roundfiles the whole thing automatically so that you never have to trouble yourself with it again, never even have to receive an alert or a BlackBerry message saying that it's there. You send it to the cyberequivalent of the Phantom Zone (squirt?). And then go about your day (squirt.).

Can I get rich now please?
