I have coined a new computer term: email sneezing.

You know those chain emails that tell you to forward them to everyone you know? Well, an email sneeze is when you do it.

See, I liken these emails to a virus of sorts. One person is infected, then they "sneeze" out emails which demand that the sender send it to all of their friends. Of course, a few people just delete it, (those who are "immune") but the rest keep the chain going.

Now that I have created a term for it, perhaps it will come into wide usage. Soon, perhaps, "email sneeze" will be a common phrase in everyday conversation.

Achoo!
