I use hotmail for almost everything, but I refuse to put my hotmail account on any sort of application/resume or important thing. For that I use gmail. For some reason I just feel like hotmail is not a "serious" email. Anyone else feel that way?

I have no idea why, but yes. I definitely feel like Gmail is a more respectable provider.

Gmail used to be the "rebel" email - only real geeks use Gmail. Grandma uses Hotmail. As you can see by the results of this poll, that's no longer the case. EVERYBODY uses Gmail, including Grandma. And Google loves it because now they can use your email to figure out which ads to shower upon you. |

There's something just embarrasing about using Hotmail or AOL to me. I stumbled across this snip-it from Paul Rudd in an interview when asked about why it seems so many celebs (not that I care but that was the question posed) use AOL? “I like AOL because it’s so embarrassing,” Rudd explains. “People look at you as if you’re a fossil. Which you are. But I enjoy that embarrassment. I like being on the outside. Having an AOL address is like wearing Ocean Pacific shorts. It’s so uncool that it’s cool.” It'd be like still using Netscape as your browser if it still existed. |
