Does anybody here know what Gmail is exactly and how is it different from regular e-mail? Does anybody here use it?

Don't know why I didn't do it in the first place, I googled it, found lotsa info on it.

Didn't say anything about gossip on there, tho. :)

you probably saw this too ....

G - is for Google mail ... so google it :D

"Google approach to email.

Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of webmail, built on the idea that you should never have to delete mail and you should always be able to find the message you want. The key features are:

Search, don't sort.
Use Google search to find the exact message you want, no matter when it was sent or received.

Don't throw anything away.
1000 megabytes of free storage so you'll never need to delete another message.

Keep it all in context.
Each message is grouped with all its replies and displayed as a conversation.

No pop-up ads. No untargeted banners.
You see only relevant text ads and links to related web pages of interest."

This is not a plug, just info ...

I don't really know how it works but here's a link to some possible negatives: Gmail is too creepy

... and another: Your cookie tastes better to Google with your email address

Cheers

I fell for it and opened a Gmail account - so far, so good. It's a bit more involved than a regular account, but I think I'm going to like the filing capabilities. More on this as I get used to some of the features.

But they try to give you the guilts if you want to delete mail - <g>.

Still under Beta test.

I'm having problems sending mail to AOL addresses, including my own, but everything else seems to be working OK.
