And, for the record
I could really give two shits about this whole Google in China brouhaha.
You can have my Gmail account when you pry the keyboard from my cold dead fingers.
Thank God it's not just me! I feel better now. :)
Posted by: Stingflower at January 27, 2006 03:03 PMNothing to do with China, but I never got into using my gmail account. It's just one more languishing free email address :) I'm not sure it's even still active considering how long it's been since I logged on.
Posted by: Ith at January 27, 2006 03:28 PMYes, it's active. That was one of the ways they distinguished themselves from the others.

And the only reason I got a GMail account is so I could chat on Google Talk, which it then turned out nobody else I know has. For my everyday email needs I use Bluebottle, which has many nifty features including nigh-daily unexplained service outages which can last for hours at a time... Just in case you wanted to know why you were wise to go with GMail instead...
I don't use google that often, I don't have a gmail account, I could care less.
