Three years ago today, many people thought Google’s announcement of a new mail service was a hoax. It wasn’t.
I won’t celebrate my third year using Gmail until July, but the past 2 years, 9 months, has changed how I use and access my email. Yes, it’s still in beta and bad things happen occasionally, but along with Mail.app, it’s the best email service I’ve ever used. It was a game-changing innovation, in the best tradition of Google.
