I have always had two main email accounts for the longest time - my academic account (wherever that was at that time) and my personal account (which has typically been Hotmail up until very, very recently). My personal account was, up until about last spring, not that heavily used until I joined a list-serv with it and since then it's been used far more regularly. Most of the usage was a few old friends from high school and the occasional bit of email from a board I used to frequent.
I'm still keeping & checking my Hotmail, mainly since I'll still get a few things every so often, but for the most part, my university and Gmail account will be it.
Ever since my parents registered a domain, I can make my own email alias, and link it to whatever account I choose, which is very handy because you never have to give people a new mail address :-)
Those gmail accounts sure do sound interesting though, so out of curiousity: how does one *get* a one?
