Thanks to Blogger.com I now have a gmail account. Sure many of you say, so what. I say 1GB of storage. The search based, no folder approach to email is different, but I like it. It will be interesting in a few months as I use the service. As far as Google scanning through emails for advertising, I don't see it as a big deal. Did you ever think email was a secure medium? This company doesn't really care what you are sending, they just want to be able to advertise their providers services. It is a bold, very good (in my opinion) method toward email. The best part of all is that it is FREE. It just amazes me how people love to bitch about how unfair free services are. Like it is a right or something. As always it's simple, if you don't like it don't use it. Most of us in the world have that freedom, choice, use it.
