“What is cc

Image by Artist Delacroix, 2016.

CC is a term that abbreviates the widely used term c.c. = (which actually means) carbon copy.

abbreviation for carbon copy : written at the end of a business letter or in an email before the names of the people who will receive a copy

When you furnish a copy of a letter — by duplication — that means the originator is aware of being able to create another — but technologically, instead of using the old “carbon paper” to create actual copies — or the old xerox copier machines that uses a flash technology to photocopy, this means that we can via a revolutionary thing called “field” on one email message, actually be able to address (verb) the people we are to furnish these copies to.

Copying people — is now the term for furnishing them copies of a document, in one single email message, to be able to not have to create the same, and save ourselves reams in paper and carbon toner — and, in one SEND we are able to give all the people we specify, concerned with the subject (or not, as an FYI) be able to reiterate our messages, just the one time.

This is the revolutionary paper-save that is our digital emailing.

We are able to connect people and our thoughts that we used to send “memos” towards a more eloquent messaging effort and be able to create a faster workflow to enable these messages not to go through secretaries that viably need to type on paper to several people for a meeting that happens 3–4 times a day.

This revolutionary innovation is all in the name of efficiency. We all want to make dinner at 8, and therefore, correspond ourselves to align to the time-saving techniques that these technologies are meant to do.

We want a faster way to say, hey.

And when we need to collectively understand something — and gear everyone to that one PLACE (where we gather), TIMING (when), IDEA (what), PLATFORM (how), we use the emails as our conveyance.

Otherwise, we gather people in a network towards the collectivity of creating the subjective value of fully taking *synchronicity towards the embarking of actual propositions with acknowledging, where we evaluate at one time, the singularity of what we need from people: concurrence.

Seeking this uses several tools — ergo, our insistence on being able to evaluate the best way that this is gone about. (Without being too much of an impediment, that is.)

Partly, written in a more “heat now, edit later” mode. Pardon the grammaticals.
