I don’t like GMAIL

I have been using GMAIL for about 3 years now. I started using it for the large mail sizes and the amount you an store. From that angle it is great. From a UI stand point and a email management stand point it’s a complete wreck. All of your mail is stored in one place and there are no folders of ways to manage it better, other than with filters or views. I don’t like all the filters of views, I like folders and the everything in one bucket aproch is killing me. I lose things, the treads are hard to track and I am starting to really use it a lot and love the calendar and documents side of it, but absolutly hate the GMail interface.

I am moving to Yahoo Mail, and now I have to make sure all my mail is routing and everyone changes how they get in touch with me, what a pain, but at least Yahoo works the way I thing.

Ed Brill is blogging about the IBM/Lotus growth as well. I think as Lotus people we have all known for years that this was going on and it was only a matter of time before the rest of the world would catch up. This is movment in the proper direction. Lotus is dead, long live Lotus!

I think this is key and should have Microsoft running around scared - “Lotus Symphony has been downloaded by over 1.3 million individuals and businesses”

Lotus Notes 8 is a one stop shop for all things in the modern office. You don’t need anything else on your desktop/laptop anymore.

iPhone & Lotus Notes - What do we do now

Yesterday Apple released a new version of the iPhone and somewhere in the mix old Steve Jobs, who looks sick, left out talking about IBM and Lotus iNotes for the iPhone.

There is a good bit of chatter on Ed Brill’s blog about it and people are concerned.  Nathan Freeman weights in on the SDK problem.
