To be honest doesn't everyone already have a Gmail account anyway? and its not like its the end of the world big deal you will have to type a few more letters. Granted Gmail does sound alot cooler than Google Mail, but I dont really care I already have a Gmail account and the features that make it the bestwebmail system will still be the same and continue to improve. or maybe I just don't see the relevence as I already have my nice shiney @gmail.com address.

Well, I mean, you can always get your US or Canadian or Australian friend or just a friend from somewhere else to sign up for you, and give you the password and account. However, I don't think Google would like that. (Maybe I should try to get my british friends to send me a googlemail invite... it doesn't hurt to get extra email accounts )

At least the change is not affecting too many things I mean, the address of the sign-in page is the same, and also,

QUOTE

...this change doesn’t affect existing Gmail addresses.

meaning that people (in the UK) who already have a gmail address will not have to change it. I do hope they can get the gmail address back, because it's, well, snappier. There can't be too much to a name, though, and I think I have no problem typing out g o o g l e m a i l for an e-mail address!

1. How Did You Feel When You Got Gmail? - Share it here (64)

   Hai GMail share the feelings that you got when you recived your first GMail Invite. Here is mine
   At first when I received a mail from Google that contained the link for my GMail account, my joy was
   boundless. I signed up for GMail on 2/19/05 the time when GMail was just released and GMail invites
   are rare. I was the only student in my college atthat time having a GMail Account. That made my
   friends look in jealousy. That was great time. ...

3. Auto-delete Your Spam In Gmail - finally, get rid of all that spam! (15)

   i have been using gmail for quite a while, and have always hated hotmail. i hate it now more than
   ever now that it is 'windows live mail'. however, there has always been something about
   gmail that bugs me: how on earth do i get rid of all that spam? i mean, doesn't it ever bug you
   when you have 3 new messages in your inbox, and then 56 bits of spam? and then you have to manually
   head to the spam folder, and delete them all? i know gmail offer you a lot of space and i know the
   spam messages get deleted after 30 days, but for me it is a phsychological thing: i...

6. Multiple Gmail Accounts As Free Online Storage? - (8)

   I came across this topic which basically says that you can use Gmail to store your files. If
   you're lucky, you get some free gmail invites to be sent to your friends when you open a gmail
   account. Now if you just keep sending the invites to yourself, you'll end up with lots more
   gmail accounts, isn't it? (I've tried it, you CAN create multiple gmail accounts by inviting
   yourself) And that means more storage space if you use each account to store 2 GB of things right?
   Could it possibly rival other premium data backup services online, most importantly...

8. Microsoft Says Gmail Is A Virus - (65)

   QUOTE It seems that Microsoft has started flagging Gmail as a virus in their virus scanning
   software Windows Live OneCare. Many people are reporting that every time they open Gmail, a warning
   is displayed telling the user they are infected with "BAT/BWG.A". Now, either Gmail is a virus, or
   Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
   do not pick up the infection — to me, this is a bit suspicious. So who should be responsible for
   fixing the problem? Either Google can wait for Microsoft to update their virus def...

17. Gmail Problems - ...can't access my mail (9)

    Since moving to Pakistan, I've been appalled at the poor internet service here. Especially since
    the cable has gone down, things have only gone from bad to worse. Now with the satellite links
    things are slowly moving again. I can finally access Yahoomail, hotpop mail, all my other mail
    accounts. But for some reason gmail won't work. The google search engine works fine, but when i
    try to access the mail section i get a page not found error. is this possibly only a local problem,
    or is it something that others have found as well? i imagine not, or there would be a ...

27. What Else Is Gmail Missing? - Compared to other services (9)

    Well gmail seems to be that popular one that is authentic and easy to use. It seems to be the
    fastest AJAX version of mail compared to AOL, Yahoo, and the ugly Windows Live Mail. But isn't
    that just a bit too bizarre... there seems to be so many features... what is Gmail missing? Google
    is such a large and rich company, what are they not going to be able to afford. For one thing
    Windows Live Mail certainly is missing a lot... no POP3 no mail forwarding and really crappy
    unattractive ads that take up half the screen. And it doesn't let you chat on your Windows Liv...
