What tha hey? Google is starting an email service? Looks like they made a list of everything that is wrong, wrong, wrong with MS and Yahoo and went where they needed to go. From the Gmail site:
Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of webmail, built on the idea that you should never have to delete mail and you should always be able to find the message you want. The key features are:
Search, don't sort. Use Google search to find the exact message you want, no matter when it was sent or received.
Don't throw anything away. 1000 megabytes of free storage so you'll never need to delete another message.
Keep it all in context. Each message is grouped with all its replies and displayed as a conversation.
No pop-up ads. No banners. You see only relevant text ads and links to related web pages of interest.
