Advantages
* can have folders
* home page of yahoo gives weather + top news stories (good for "time poor" people)
* yahoo is a cooler name than gmail
* interface is alot more sleek
I used to live by gmail but ever since the other companies (e.g. yahoo) let you search your mailbox, gmail has slowly lost its shine.
I'm always saying Barack Obama doesn't have the experience necessary to be president... as shown by this post
Anyways,
I'll never get a y7mail.com account. Man yahoo blows. Gmail is for everyone with sense.
Yahoo Disadvantages
* Can ONLY have folders
* home page of yahoo gives weather + top news stories (worthless to me, but gmail can do better) I HATE seeing that shit when I log into my yahoo account.
* yahoo was never a cool name. It was played out long before google was ever founded.
* interface is garbage
And oh, by the way... I definitely understand the thought behind:
yahoo < gmail < private email domain/server
But... my personal email history of my primary address was:
hotmail then isp then private domain/server then gmail
gmail is just a lot more functional for me than my private domain email... but I really should look into using my domain email on gmail.... that would be nice.
