Gmail Search Rocks

Google’s new free webmail service isn’t about the 1 GB space. It’s about amazing search technology. Forget filing and organizing email messages. That’s a thing of the past. With Gmail, you just type in a word or two that you remember from the email you’re looking for, and hit “Search Mail”. Instantly, the message appears. When you view it, the search terms are highlighted. Excellent.

I used it just now, and it works great. 1 GB space is just a marking number. You get that space, sure, but it’s no big deal. Follow my progress as I fill up the account… so far, “You are currently using 10 MB (1%) of your 1000 MB.”
