You have to hand it to Google with their brilliant advertising scheme. Create demand where there isn't any -- bloody fantastic!

@Karbon: Agreed!
Google will one day be as bad as Microsoft, IMO.

Well, part of the way they created demand was by creating a superior product. Their mail and interface is the best I've seen.

[rant]gmail just made my life much easier, thanks to very responsive interface, and the tons of cool features. I use it exclusively since more than 1 year and won't change ever for an offline mailer (too much worries for synchronizing rules, address etc.)[/rant]

Gmail impressed me more than Yahoo, but until they let you send an *.exe
by mail, and also make the filtering more user-friendly, I won't use it.
