Someone sends you a PDF file and you monkey around trying to open it, then print it, then sign it, and then send it back by regular email. It just takes a lot of time \u2013 you know what I mean, right?<\/p>\n<p>Then there are times when you only have to drive downtown to sign a document but you really don\u2019t like the smell of lawyer\u2019s offices \u2013 or you don\u2019t want to have to be in the same room with your ex \u2013 or with the guy who\u2019s suing you, or stuff like that. So it would be super-nice if you do the whole ball of wax online without ever having to get dressed or combing your hair \u2013 in other words \u2013 you could sit home in your Sponge Bob boxers and take care of legal matters by signing documents electronically. This came in really handy recently when I wanted to resign from Cloudeight, but didn\u2019t want to have to face EB and her tirade of shouting and crying. So I resigned electronically with a legal and digitally signed resignation letter which you can all read here.<\/p>\n<p>If you have legal documents you want to sign but don\u2019t feel like putting shoes on or taking another shower, you\u2019ll appreciate SignNow.com \u2013 it takes the personal out of the legal.
