Yea, they trying 2 make people stay on hotmail when the new GMAIL (Google Email) comes out, I wouldnt blame them...google is getting more and more popular

Gmail is awesome, I got int he beta...it's great! You have virtually unlimited space, and no folders, and a awesome search function.

I wish I cared enough to actually try G-mail. Oh well, you cant blame Hotmail for trying to keep up with the competition.

No, thats the thing. G-mail is a FREE service. It's in beta now for testing, and able to reserver addresses, and it's going to be totally free like hotmail and what not. It won't even have ads at the bottom of your messages. If you want in give me your e-mail and I'll send you an invite.

I have a gmail account, i'll probably use it more when it becomes fully supportable for messengers..

However Google are thinking about releasing a chat client.
