gmail and other stuff
Gmail works pretty good as a meathod of dealing with my disorganization. I am pretty happy with it. I hope that they implement a method to allow you to edit the documents saved in the database.. That is really the only drawback of my system. If I have out of date information, I have to copy and paste it in my own mail client, edit it, send it back to my gmail account, then delete the original.
I wonder if Google figured anyone would use the account this way. I would guess that very few people have questioned the established heirarcial filing system that we have become so accustomed to in computer systems over the last few years. It is obvious that a few of the folks who have questioned the norm work at Google.
I feel that it is probably easier to type 'notepad' into a command line than it is to click on "Start", then click on "Programs", then click on "accessories", then click on "notepad". (I think that is how you do it. I am using Linux today) Most people would probably agree if they thought about it, but few think to think about it.
