The Fax of Life: Electronically

Faxes are, well, so 1980s.

E-faxing is a nice way to avoid excess paper and to funnel everything into email and onto your computer, where you're going to store everything else that comes into your office.

There are a lot of different services online, such that it's not really worth trying to compare them. They're all about the same; they give you a number, you get a couple of hundred outgoing minutes a month (generally it's about a minute a page sending a fax), and unlimited incoming minutes. Services start at about $10/month. Also, there's no need to have an actual fax machine.
