I've been on gmail for a couple of years and like most of it, but it pisses me right off that you STILL can't add contacts from your address book into the address box of a mail you're composing. Any simple mail program should include that feature.

who needs an address book when you have AJAX in the "To:" text box?? it's way much better...
 
Google is the new Microsoft ...

Google is the new Microsoft.

They ignore IETF and other standards and invent their own.
Their IP agreements and other, real legal approaches are scary as fuck.
The "do no evil" motto is not how they conduct their business at all.

All of their stores are closed and you cannot easily move from one system to another.
Eventually they hack in some standards support over many, many years, but they still aren't remotely compliant on many RFCs.
But at least they warn you with "Beta," although so does Yahoo and most everyone else but Microsoft.

Google is assimilating everything.
Microsoft has become IBM and Google has become Microsoft.
But most people won't realize that for a few more years.
 
Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail and AOL. I use all of them. :D
 
I have used only Gmail for about 4 years now, I only have hotmail and yahoo for their messengers, which I rarely use anyway except to talk to my fam back home. Gmail is good, but it does read your mails for targeted ads, and the sad inability to bring up a list of your contacts to add to an e-mail that pretty much every other e-mail provider has always had stop it from being great.
 
Like everyone else i got a shitload of accounts floating around but my Gmail and AT&T Yahoo are my main ones.
 
gmail is the best for me

even though i also use hotmail and yahoo (mostly chat with cam, far away family)
 
I have never used gmail, so can’t really pass comment on it? I will stick with yahoo as I have never had any problems with it.
 
I use Yahoo because I read in some forum that Gmail has embedded spyware

What Gmail has is program which scans your emails in order to display ads that might interest the user.
