A new way to stay in touch

Our exchange of e-mail is one of the most common uses of the internet, with free e-mail accounts comprising the bulk of resources we utilize when communicating with one another. From Yahoo to Hotmail, there is no shortage of choices with which to stay in touch with friends and family, most of them offering similar features you can employ in the management of your mail.

Relatively new, having initially been available in just a closed beta, Google now offers Gmail to the public. Not unlike those e-mail accounts I?ve already mentioned, Gmail is a free service, yet its functionality extends beyond what’s typically offered by its competitors:

  • An initial storage capacity of 8GB, which is considerably larger than what?s available with your standard free e-mail account.
  • A conversational-like management of e-mail, which sees correspondence on a single subject ( which can span numerous e-mails ) grouped within a stacked format that saves users the time spent returning to their mailbox and selecting each relevant e-mail.
  • Comprehensive spam filtering that is community-driven, where one user?s receipt and acknowledgment of legitimate spam results in the entire Gmail community being notified of any future mailings originating at that source.

These are just a few examples to be found among the many useful features that have helped propel Gmail above more threadbare alternatives. Google is constantly improving upon its interface, making it easier for Gmail users to organize the email they send and receive. ?While it?s certainly not perfect, it has been the recipient of numerous technology awards for good reason.

If you need assistance setting up a Gmail account, or you?re unsure of how to take advantage of its features, let us know. That is what Geek Choice is for.
