Y!Mail Vs Gmail

Posted on Feb 03 in Tech Stuffby PrintText Resizer Text Resizer

 

Recently, I spend a little more time on Google products like Gmail and Google Reader. I think they are very useful for the loading speed. Especially when I have a very slow connection in the office. I have been using Yahoo mail for many years. I was happy to see the new features when it was still in beta. However, sometimes it really takes longer time to read mails in the new Yahoo! mail interface.

Gmail Interface

A sudden thought stroke in my mind. Why not try to use Gmail? Yes,  I do have a Gmail account but it’s not my primary email. The best thing about Gmail is each email with replies is just like a conversation. You can easily refer back to what have been discussed previously without recalling or searching the old archives.

Another great thing Gmail offers to its user is the ability to change theme (appearance) of the interface. Some themes even changes according to the time zone (weather) you are in, provided you enter the correct location.

Gmail Themes

Back to Yahoo! mail. If I’m not mistaken, Yahoo! mail as a feature called “Stationery” and was only available if you pay (like upgrade your account to Yahoo! mail plus). Only until today, I just realized that the “Stationery” is now FREE for everyone! It’s just like a theme or layout of your content which you are going to send to the receiptients.

There are several themes available and I tried to send an email from my Yahoo! mail to my Gmail account.

I’ll still stick with Yahoo! mail and will use Gmail for some special purposes.
