why not

wtf is a g-mail account?

[Toshiro]

Yeah.. What is it?

[Bra]

G-Mail. Google's mail service. 1000 MB of storage space, dude. I still have ~4-5 invites left. I believe I gave one to Furiza. =\

Plus, it's absofuckinglutely free. And big. And... invite only. So... Slug is trying to do you guys a favor here.

Hotmail increased it's size O_o I'd rather stick to the old fashioned e-mail. Besides, I have emails in it that I'd rather not lose, and everything I ever signed up for or gave my email for is for that one, I don't want to go around switching it =P. I think g-mail is over rated, but whatever.

I'm up then.. He should know my email..

Yeah, but Hotmail is 250 MB. G-Mail is 1 GB. I believe I see a winner here.

Who can use all of that space? Now I never go past 1% full in hotmail O_o, I'd stick with it because it's just as good in my opinion. G-mail is just trying to run down hotmail, that's what I think, and I've been using hotmail for 5 years, I'd never bail out on them for some new and bigger site. So yes I boycott G-Mail, but that's just me and I don't care what you people do, just saying what I think.

Having 1 gig of e-mail storage is like killing a fly with a shotgun. Unnecessary.

Is there anything else it has that makes it so special?

The way they organize emails is really cool. They're arranged into conversations instead of just messages.

I pretty much agree... although my email keeps switching between 2mb and 250... it's confusing the hell out of me, every other day it switches back and forth.

A kid down the hall from me uses a G-Mail for spam-mail purposes, I can see that use. That's pretty much it.

*Shrug*

Whatever, I still have a Hotmail account, and yeah, like Koola said, G-Mail's a much more organized e-mail service. WAAAAAY less spam, too. Shiet, 98% of the e-mail I receive from Hotmail is garbage. I've received two spam e-mails to my G-Mail account. I guess that's a plus. But anyway, nobody's making you use either. Hell, I use both. More importantly, Shaun of the Dead is still a kick-ass movie.

I simply delete any files that have over 100 KB

Yeah, Gohan. What he said.

That's why whe you join, don't click any of those boxes unless you have to. I only get a email from them like once every month. I have had a invite to gmail, and said I didn't want it, 'cause hotmail is eough.

[Vegeta]

this isn't about if gmail or hotmail is better so stuf. if you want a gmail account ask and someone would be willing to give you an invite. thnx.
