My boyfriend’s dad sends me e-mail by hand-writing “Dear Lauren” on a sheet of paper and pressing two buttons on his fax machine. His note goes to Celery, a new e-mail-by-fax service, where its servers use handwriting-recognition software to match my name to an e-mail address stored in Pop’s list of friends. Then it turns his letter into a PDF file and dispatches it to my inbox. When I hit reply, my message or photo comes out on his end as a fax. Now the whole family shares news in an instant.
