webmail (over ssl of course) works just fine when i need to check from somewhere without my own machine. if you take time to actually read even some of the fine print in those agreements you'll see that keeping ownership of your own content, images and personal information (as much as you can, at least), far outweighs the value of an ajax-driven mail service by a company that has the money to do it. just remember they don't do it because they love you.

hell, i deny google anything to track me by when i can just because that creeps me out. when i want a site to personalize something to my habits, i'll sign up with an account and do it myself, knowing full well that every click i make (or even mouse-over) gets recorded, tracked, analyzed and charted for their marketing and advertising pleasure.

i want to control my own 'net experience, thank you; not the other way around.
