My takes on email and IM

I would rank Yahoo Email on top of others for its ease of use and the features it offers. I've almost stopped using my Hotmail because of the number of junk mails I've been getting there. Too much! Gmail is a innovative one but still doesn't offer much of what Yahoo is offering. Any how, they are still in beta and these guys deserve more time. Till then, it's Yaaaaahoooooooo!

I really can't differentiate between MSN messenger and Yahoo messenger with respect to their features but I use Yahoo all the time except when I use voice chat. Yahoo has an issue when we do voice chatting. It doesn't allow simultanous talk. That is both the callers can't talk at the same time. If one speaks the other has to wait... It's so difficult for people who just cut short the others while talking! I've not tried using the recently released Yahoo messenger with Voice for voice chatting yet as my friends haven't yet downloaded it. Till then it's MSN for voice chatting and of course the newly launched Google Talk. I tried voice chatting with Google talk and find it good. Let it evolve. BTW, Yahoo updated its messenger today.
