Friday Gmail continued research



Google Buzz



Like Hotmail G-mail has many useful features. Gmail contains lots of storage space with around 7500 MB of storage and counting. Gmail is fast to create and easy to use. Gmail also contains the service google buzz where you can see posts from your friends you follow and so can keep in touch with your friends. This service though contains location devices which establishes exactly where you are this can be seen as a bad aspect because anyone could see where you are. You are able to use GMail in most mobiles that have an Internet service and if you have an android phone the people you add to your contacts are automatically added to your Gmail contacts making it even easier to communicate with other people. Also like Hotmail you are able to change the themes and colours of your profile making it more personal to you. A very handy feature in G-mail is the chat which is shown in your profile just on the toolbar which means you don't even have to avert away from the page, everything is all in one place making it easier for you. You can also add reminders and task to your account reminding you of things you have to do.  All the essential features are included in Gmail including attachments and different folders to organise your work. Gmail contains one of the best spam defence systems which will protect you from all the many viruses and stop spam mail arriving to your inbox.

All of the large Email providers are very secure and update there systems all the time constantly making your email experience better.The way you can change the colours themes etc makes it more personal to you.
