Tessa the Duchess Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I need to open a webmail account. I do not want to use Yahoo or Hotmail so was toying with opening a Gmail account. Anybody use Gmail? Good? Bad? Indifferent? Or any alternative suggestions? Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lailapet Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I use gmail and like it a lot! The spam filter is good and all in all I'm a big fan of all things google. Also use Picasa for my photos and like the way you can link to googlemaps and google earth directly... So I recommend gmail. Laila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa Gmail is great - I have used it for a couple of years - fantastic (except for the fact that Google are taking over the world and will one day be the new evil microsoft empire!! ) go for it - way better than hotmail, Yahoo and all those other spam-magnets!
