My special email ids.

I still remember and use my 1st email id. On Hotmail. It was created 13 years back when Hotmail was world's only free email service provider. After that I guess my 2nd email id was on Yahoo. And I remember ever since Yahoo happened I made sure I stick to the same user id wherever I create a new email account and its been like that at most of the sites until I came on Myway where I got an email id with my 1st name "Hardeep".

So while it is very common that most of us do not get an email id with our 1st name on our favorite site and get the usual error message saying "This user id is already taken. Please choose another" with 5 of the suggestions, my way of avoiding it was to stick to the email id I had registered with on Yahoo and which I easily got on Gmail and more email sites (Yes I have quite a few email addresses and I love all the sites for various reasons). It went on until Myway and later on for this domain Live.com (where I got my 1st name again but on live.in) and this site which today makes me excited because that is 1 hell of an email id I have. Yup believe me this is like ultra cool and its called G.ho.st. G.ho.st - Your complete Virtual Computer (VC) in the browser, running the Global Hosted Operating SysTem from Ghost Inc.

So now I have a super cool id with my 1st name again and it feels good and also the fact that it has additional features like POP3/IMAP access and Email fetcher with built in POP3 and much more. Also I have amazing email ids which I would not divulge here because I am worried about spammers targetting them, but Yes I still am excited like a kid with all the email ids I have and I love my email ids though Gmail is my favorite because of the centralized hub it has become over the years and because of its features which no other webmail provides. And you know what?

While most guys would not create a new account on every other website that comes up, I would if It gives a "cool" quotient to my email id. LOL sounds childish but ya that's how I am And YES I refuse to grow up in this matter at least.

H@rdeep.
