You have got to be kidding.

 

[EyeMWing]

myname@myprofessionallyorienteddomain.com

Do somthing to show off your technical skills, if you're applying for a technical position.

Dude, yahoo is dumb. And don't use a domain name with your name in it. That's also dumb.

once again an argument i'm having with a friend of mine 😀
every time i want backing up for stuff i feel strongly for, i ask this forum, which tends to have people who're on my side rather than hers!! 😀 just makes me feel better, cause she's really stubborn 😉

just as long as it isnt something like kiddydiddlergoodtoucbadtouchman@stalker.net it probably will make no difference.

Check out the wit on this one.

Hmm. How about yourname@thatslicksoundingdomainyouregisteredassumingyouweresmartenoughtodoso.com, cretin.

Or yourname@yourisp.com. Yahoo/Hotmail are about as far from professional sounding as you can get.

YOURNAME@IEEE.ORG

Least professional email addresses: @yahoo.com, @hotmail.com, @aol.com
