Google has had it’s critics. Many people point at privacy concerns and say that you should stay away from any Google services. I am not one that believes that at all. I really believe everyone should sign up for a Gmail account. Before I go further, I need to mention a disclaimer that I do have investment’s in Google.
Why should everyone have a Gmail account? Webmail is th best way to go. The cloud is the future. The future is now.
I have used Gmail for many years. It stores all my email, contacts and calendar. I use it on a daily basis. I forward all my domain email accounts to Gmail and then I use Gmail to manage that email.
Why do I believe everyone should use a Gmail account. The following are many reasons why:
1. Gmail is free so their is not extra cost.
2. Calendar’s can be shared with other Gmail users. I share my calendar with Kelli so she know what my after work schedule is. We use the shared calendars to help manage our lives togeather.
3. Smart Phone Integration is one of Gmail’s strong suites. With most smart phones all you need to do is to enter your gmail address and password and it automatically loads in your email, contacts and address book. That makes your setup really easy.
4. Gmail’s spam filters are some of the best. The spam filters get better as you use Gmail more.
5. Gmail is based in the cloud. This means you can access your email from any computer which has Internet access.
6. Gmail has free pop/imap and Smtp access. I often read and reply to my Gmail using Thunderbird. It make’s my life easier at times.
These are my six reasons why a Gmail account is a must. Why do you think everyone should use Gmail?
