Gmail rocks my world
Gmail, Google's new free webmail service, is in my opinion the greatest thing since sliced bread. I managed to get my hands on an account this past weekend, and I am so far very happy with the service. The gmail interface is intuitive and streamlined; it lacks the clunkiness that I find in every other webmail service I've ever used. Some of the cool things about gmail:
- If you send e-mail to or receive e-mail from any person who is not in your contact list, he/she is automatically added to your contact list.
- E-mail conversations are organized by thread, so that you have instant access to every piece of correspondence regarding a given subject.
- Gmail lets you set up filters (!) for incoming mail.
- You can mark messages with labels, which obviates the need to create a complicated folder structure and then file individual messages.
- E-mail search that really works.
- No distracting banner ads!
- Every message view page contains an empty text box displayed beneath the message; if you click in the text box, a reply/forward form is automatically displayed, making the reply/forward process even more efficient.
