'''Email''' (from the French ''emaileux'') is kind of crazy.
'''Email''' (from the [[France|French]] ''emaileux'') is kind of crazy.
 
== History ==
Emails were created by [[Jean d'Emaileux]] in 1886 when he tried to send a [[love]] letter through his [[telephone|cellphone]]. To d'Emaileux's dismay, cellphones were not yet invented and he could not enjoy the epic song ''Hello My [[Baby]]'' on [[Radio 10 (Netherlands)|radio]] even though the radio had been invented. To solve the problem, d'Emaileux created his service "Emaileux" and then everyone loved it but then over in [[Great Britain|Britain]], [[John the Email]] stole the concept and changed the name to "Email."
