G-mail or Hotmail????
Well i've final got a email saying that i could set up a g-mail account (google based email), but i am so used to using hotmail for the past while (about 4 years) i dunno if i will be able to get used to it, if you know what i mean, but g-mail has 4 times the storage as hotmail and a bunch of other features (i haven't fully checked it out yet) that hotmail doesn't have, soo you guys and gals think its worth it to use verus hotmail?

i switched to gmail from hotmail and absolutely love it! Right now i had over 450 emails sitting, many with big attachments, and i am only using like 2% of my limit. Easy to search for your mail, and greatest thing is i have not receieved a single piece of spam in my inbox. The recently added a spam folder, and i have probably had maybe 10 in there since they started. My old hotmail account i check every so often, and i am getting at least 5 spam emails a day.. hotmail got bad. Go for gmail, and if you don't like it you could always go back.. but i would bet you will be more than happy with gmail. 
good luck
oh yeah, and if anyone wants an invitation to gmail i have a few to give out. (PM or email me)

Cody, i got Gmail also. go for it and get it. it's awesome and since it's just starting out you can get most any name you want. mine is NorCalRedneck. i could have got Redneck but i wanted that instead. it's awesome. i'll never go back to hotmial or yahoo mail again. i still have my yahoo account for messenger and for the other stuff i have subscriptions to. Anyways i got like 100 emails with multiple pics and i'm only using like 1 or 2% of my space as is 02superstroker. I have only gotten about 3 or 4 junk mail. nothin compared to yahoo. Yahoo i was getting about 2000 a week. crazy i know. thats why i switched. GO for it and you'll never turn back. it's the ford of the email systems.

I have used my gmail account for awhile now, prolly close to 6 months. I still use my hotmail account because its easy to remember, everyone has it, and I'm used to it. If I get something in my hotmail account I want to keep but its big I just send it to my gmail account for storage. That way its not on my comp taking up space but accessable anywhere the internet is and I dont have to print it out.
I alos ahve some invites, so if someone wants they can send me a PM too.
