Educate me, my ears are at full attention. Whats so special about Gmail? The address I use on my profile isn't my 'real address'. Just a free account I opened so you guys could drop me a line and tell me how much you love me. ;) I've had people tell me they could give me Gmail accounts before, but I suppose my ignorance on the sheer greatness of the account kept me from taking them up on the offer. So tell me all about Gmail!

Gmail is supposed to revolutionize the way we do email. Here's the welcome message that they sent me upon formation of my account:
First off, welcome. And thanks for agreeing to help us test Gmail. By now you probably know the key ways in which Gmail differs from traditional webmail services. Searching instead of filing. A free gigabyte of storage. Messages displayed in context as conversations.
So what else is new?
Gmail has many other special features that will become apparent as you use your account. To help you get started, we encourage you to visit our Help Center, there you can browse frequently asked questions, read our Getting Started guide, or contact the Gmail User Support Team. You'll also find information in the Help Center on such topics as:
Importing your contacts from Yahoo! Mail, Outlook, and others to Gmail
Using address auto-complete
Setting up filters for incoming mail
Using advanced search options
You may also have noticed some text ads or related links to the right of this message. They're placed there in the same way that ads are placed alongside Google search results and, through our AdSense program, on content pages across the web. The matching of ads to content in your Gmail messages is performed entirely by computers; never by people. Because the ads and links are matched to information that is of interest to you, we hope you'll find them relevant and useful.
We're working hard during our limited test to improve Gmail and make it the best webmail service around. Thanks for taking the plunge with us. We hope you'll enjoy Google's approach to email.
Thanks,
The Gmail Team
Basically, they give you a shit ton of storage (1 Gig). Gmail also has this cool feature called conversation or something like that, where you can see all of the correspondence spawning from one email (the other person's replies, your replies, etc.).
So far, honestly, I like it much better than anything I have used.
And I have some invites if you'd like one. ;-)
I have it and so far...I like my old yahoo mail a hundred times better.
