[edit] History
On 1 April 2004, when it launched, it caught the email industry off guard, offering 1 gigabyte. Hotmail had 10 megabytes, and Yahoo 25. Of course, Hotmail and Yahoo tried to catch up by offering up to 100 megabytes.
On Google's one year anniversary, however, just when Yahoo was upping it to 1 gigabyte, Gmail caught the industry off guard again, announcing 2 gigabytes.
[edit] Size
As of 1 June, 2008, Gmail users have 6782,27 megabytes of storage. This increases every second.
[edit] Features
Some features include:
- Rich text formatting
- Ability to quickly and easily search mail
- Filters, forwarding, and POP
- and much more!
[edit] Keyboard shortcuts
An undocumented shortcut is the use of the # key to delete an email. (via Lifehacker)
