The G-Mail

So far this new GMail account looks like it's gonna kick all kinds of ass!

A little comparison:

* Hotmail's free account gives me 2MB of space for all of my messages. If I wanted to pay them, I can get an extra 100MB.

* G-mail gives me 1000MB free storage, period. I never have to delete my messages again!

* Hotmail is littered with pop-ups and ads.

* G-mail has none of that. Only relevant text related ads. But totally non-intrusive.

I know I sound like a walking advertisement for them, but I honestly can't believe that I get this much storage for free! In most other respects, it's set up a lot like Hotmail, but simpler. Seriously, it takes me forever to find anything on Hotmail. Just looking for an old message takes me 10 minutes sometimes. G-mail just has an archive system. You just type in what you're looking for, and BAM. All set. Though truthfully, I haven't had a chance to use that function yet. I need more people to e-mail me!

C'mon!!

DO IT!!

However, this shiny new e-mail isn't open to everyone yet. They're still working the bugs out. I just got one because I'm special!

No, actually, it's because I've got a blog at Blogger.
