Google Gmail is awesome; I just got my account setup. (It is still in beta by invitation only.) I can't believe there has been so much negative speculation about this service. Why are people so cynical and so enjoy taking shots at successful entities? There have been many privacy complaints about Google serving ads based on your email content. I don't care. (1) The ads are text only, which is much better than hotmail and yahoo. (2) The ads are relevant to me, which is much better than hotmail and yahoo. (3) There is no forced banner on my outgoing email, which is much better than hotmail and yahoo. (4) I get 1gb free disk space, which is much better than hotmail and yahoo. (5) I get Google indexing of my email, which is much better than hotmail and yahoo. Am I missing something here? ¶4:38 AM; digg
