What Is Gmail

By Sean Aune | Apr 25, 2008

GMailGMail is the email application run by Google, the company best known for its search engine.  Why does everyone rave about it?  Because it is probably one of the best email solutions out there.

It can sometimes be difficult for people to imagine getting excited about how they access their email, but GMail is one of those times.  A simple interface, accessible from anywhere, with superb integration with mobile devices such as the iPhone/iPod Touch and BlackBerry, it’s hard to dislike it.  When you add in that it has over 6 GB storage, a superb search feature, easy filing with the use of their “labels”, ability to store files in their “Documents” add on…

Can you tell we love GMail around here?  For me, someone who does nothing but live on the Internet 24/7 as a writer, I have basically given up all other forms of email for my GMail accounts, they all pale in comparison.  And, oh yeah, did I mention it’s free?

If you haven’t tried it yet, you really should, you’ll find it difficult to go back.
