I am a Gmail Addict

Yes, you read it right. I'm a Gmail Addict. I've been using Gmail for more than 2 years already. I don't remember exactly who invited me to have an account, I could only remember why I shifted to Gmail.

I love Gmail. Let me count the ways:

1. Easy loading. The other email service I was using took ages to load up. Let's just say I could get quite impatient.

2. Storage! Almost no need to delete anything. And at 2.8G who needs a USB drive?

3. Easy access. I can check my mail anywhere I go. I've checked my mail in Davao, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, Bali, Jakarta, Singapore, here and there, everywhere and it's just like accessing using my PC at home.

4. Key to other services. No more hassle in having to key in my username and password whenever I'm using other Google services like Blogger, Calendar, Picasa, Groups etc. And what's great about it is I can personalize my page and put in stuff like news, the weather, horoscopes, comics, games etc.

5. Chat within your Email. No need to log-in elsewhere, it's all in there. And what's nice about it, your chats are automatically saved and searchable.

6. Spam-less! I absolutely abhor spam! I rarely get spam messages in my inbox and that makes me so nerdily happy.

7. Mobile. And you can access your mail through your mobile phone too!

Now, now that's not a commercial... just saying how much I love Gmail.

Watch the videos the engineers did! It's cute.
