As I was going into my Yahoo Mail (a few times a week affair), lo and behold!

Finally, after months of waiting to try it after reading about it on Jeremy Zawodny’s blog. That was in September 2005. PCMag already did a review back then.
My first impression, impressive! The user interface sure beat Google’s GMail by miles.

The RSS reader as mentioned by TechCrunch is very useful. I do not read RSS much because of the hassle (yes I know, it’s only me). Integrating RSS with the email reader is a perfect solution.

One thing sorely lacking in GMail is a good usable address book. Google Calendar also has some catching up to do.

But for one thing and one thing only I sticking to GMail - GMail allows me to reply using different identity. I had all my mail consolidated in GMail and reply to them using identity. It’s a breeze.
