I had been using a firefox extension for a while to check and manage my gmail accounts.
The best part is it always checks your email securely with https.
The extension is Gmail Manager. If you check your personal email at work, always check your email securely over https instead of http to prevent your emails from being read by monotoring tools.
I managed to get a gmail account for myself. I am using it and going crazy with 1GB and all those exciting features.
And I am already feeling as if I am in some wonderland.
Peace of mind! No need to delete any of my emails anymore. It has excellent features to search. Well organised structure allows you to organize your emails.
And the address book, just so awesome, you send an email to someone and automatically that email is stored in the address book. And later when you have time you can come back and add names or just leave it like that.
Next time you want to send an email to someone, just type in their first name first letter, and gmail will give you a pull down menu with contacts whose first names and last names begin with the letter you typed. So easy huh?
Also, you can do a spell checking before seding out your emails.
And so many other features...new concepts.....
Finally, I see that there is a email service, that gives me peace of mind. Thanks to the google team!!! They really rock the world!
Google is giving free invitation to beta test its gmail to a lot of blogger users, friends and relatives. All the invitations have one additional invitation which they can pass on to their friends. People started selling this invitations on ebay. The prices were hitting $200 and above. Possilble reasons are the most anxious techies who want to test it and be the first few users are paying to see and feel this wonder.
Today they are selling for about $50. What a drop !!!
However, for people who have the patience to wait for the final release of gmail, its free, 1 GB of mail storage.
How come google didn't send me an invitation? I have signed up for blogger and I am waiting :-(
I can't wait further, I am starting get a little hungry on it. I'm keeping an eye on ebay and probably will buy an invitation soon!
