GMail wins over Hotmail for me!

I have been using Gmail since late June of 2004, and the more I use it, the more I want to use it.

I now conduct most of my user group stuff there, as well as almost all of the lists I belong to use Gmail. Now, I am even moving personal things like payments away from my Hotmail account and over to Gmail. I find Hotmail too cumbersome, and there has been a bug in their sorting for quite some time that they haven't fixed.

I am really surprised other web mail clients like Gmail and Yahoo Mail haven't added the idea of conversation threading and showing all the thread on a single page - it helps me get through my email a LOT faster than I used to before Gmail.

If you still haven't gotten a Gmail account, let me know - I have 100 invites to give away! Email me at brianmeloche AT gmail.com.
