All of this recent chatter about ***Gmail|http://gmail.google.com/gmail/help/about.html*** and ***Yahoo! Mail|http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail*** has got me thinking about my own email storage situation. Rather than re-post my thoughts here, I’ll just point you to my recent comment on Slashdot’s article about Yahoo! Mail’s new 100 MB email storage limit:
***”Why do you have so much email?”|http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=111126&cid=9429218***
It’s got a moderation score of +3 (+1 of those being my own Karma bonus), so I think it’s worth reading. 🙂
I’m totally with you on the storage thing. The only time I ever came close to using my 6 MB at Yahoo! was before they made it so SPAM doesn’t count towards your limit and I couldn’t get to my computer for a week and a half. Still, the idea that I could use up 1GB makes me smile.
