I am addicted to Gmail. And Gmail is actually one of the many Google products I'm currently obsessed with.
Sporting a clean interface with unbelieveably fast loading times (almost instant), Gmail represents a new genre of application that is so functional, useable and yet lag-free. Not that Gmail is new, it's been around for ages. And it has only been recently that I left Hotmail due to my distaste for Microsoft products.
The response time of a program to my command is my current number one concern. My laptop was purchased roughly one year ago, just before I left Sinapore for Taiwan. Currently, it takes roughly one minute to open my favourite Firefox browser at the moment of startup and it crashes quite frequently when multi-tasking.
At a certain point of time tonight, I actually comprehended the choice of converting to Linux or doing a complete re-format of my computer. The choice is still left hanging in the air.
Anyway, I have been frantically messaging most of my close friends through Gmail. I admit it's great fun to use email now with it. But truth to be told, I wish I was email-ed more for other affairs, which includes work and studies.
Unfortunately, the environment I currently work in even frown upon thumbdrives, let alone Gmail.
