While I’m a heavy user of Outlook in a business environment, I’ve migrated to Gmail for my personal email, and I don’t think I’ll ever go back. Gmail is pure email done right; it doesn’t have the productivity functionality of Outlook, but if you’re just looking for a mail client that allows you to deal with your email quickly, Gmail’s the way to go.
Lifehacker has a wonderful post up called Hack Attack: Become a Gmail Master. In it, they describe all of the reasons I love Gmail, as well as some very useful tips on how to make it work even better for you. I highly recommend it.
If you don’t yet have a Gmail account, but are inspired to try it out from this post, drop me a line at jason at jasonclarke dot net. I’ve got many invitations available, and I’m happy to share.

Please note: I've moved my active blogging over to a new site, called Jason Clarke - Infinite Bass Line. I will leave this site up indefinitely, but if you're interested in my latest posts please consider visiting the new site.
