It's better than Hotmail.  No obtrusive ads.  It's super easy to search past emails, and because of the space given (which is constantly increasing) you can just archive every non-spam you receive.

Additionally, there's a smart spam filter that does a tremendous job.

Compared to an old mail client that runs on my PC, having fast, reliable webmail is really super, I can check my mail from anywhere (and do).

Right now, GMail offers something like 2.2 gigabytes of storage per account.  That's a lot of email.  I archive every non-spam, and I'm holding steady at around 5% used.  And, of course, the available space keeps going up.

gmail also support POP, so you can use your faviorite mail program on your PC and not be limitied to the web mail interface (which is pretty good).

What I like in it is the size (2gigs now), I can use it with a cellphone, addy won't change if I change ISP...
and it's just so damn good.

gmail is my public address. Spam filter works pretty good. Far better than any of the other free services.
