GMail Tips

GMail is here! (well, officially here, open to public)

More and more of my friends are switching to GMail, Yeah!! So, here I offer few "cool" tips for ya:

"dots" ignored:
GMail ignores the "." in your Gmail address, so you can be creative with it. If your email is someone@gmail.com, then emails sent to some.one@gmail.com, s.ome.one@gmail.com will all go to your someone@gmail.com inbox.

Aliases
Again, if your email is someone@gmail.com, then, someone+junk@gmail.com or someone+ebay@gmail.com or someone+porn@gmail.com all points to your someone@gmail.com inbox. GMail ignores characters after the "+" sign in your username. Useful to help you sort your mails, create filter, or battle junk mails (you can now sign up web sites with an alias)
