After a great deal of searches and requests, I finally managed to get a GMail invitation. My impression so far: it’s great.
And it’s not just the 1000MB of disk space. Although that is a very nice feature, there are several others that make it far superior to my previous account, Yahoo Mail, which had a disk quota of 6MB. A few of the highlights:
1. No more images and flash movies on the page.
2. No more advertisements added to each outgoing message.
3. Keeps track of conversations (similar to threading)
4. Automatically populates the address book with outgoing mail.
5. Keyboard shortcuts. (That’s just cool).
