Fear not the Google.

A few Google and Gmail related items: first, "Read My Mail, Please. The silly privacy fears about Google's e-mail service." from Slate. This author echoes my feelings about the hoopla over Google scanning my email to give me better ads (not to mention 1GB mail storage). Next, a blog post discussing what 1GB of mail storage per user might actually cost Google and a high-level view of how Google is positioning Gmail and its other services.

Lastly, as an "active Blogger user", I now have a gmail account! My account is my first initial followed by my last name @gmail.com -- send me something, give me something to search, let's see what ads I get. I've just now signed up, so it'll be a bit before I have anything to report.
