Web Worker Daily posted a nice rebuttal to PC Magazine’s article which stated that Gmail is falling behind the other major Web email clients (mostly because of it’s lack of drag and drop sorting). I find it takes far less time to archive af…

Yikes! It is HORRIBLE! It takes forever to come up. At least it doesn’t seem to be Flash, like their new maps. The single good feature I found with new Y!Mail is drag-n-drop DHTML for moving messages into folders.

Y!Mail’s right-side ad banner sometimes crowds the actual content that you are trying to view into half or less of the screen. Perhaps it is just an advertiser’s bad JavaScript, but it makes it hard to use when it happens. Yahoo! also still has those distracting dancing cowboy ads–if you want me to respond positively to your ad, don’t make it so that your ad prevents me from paying attention to the site I’m using. That is definitely one lender that will never get me as a customer.

GMail still rules. Besides the Web interface, I also use it with Thunderbird (no extra charge), although I would really like IMAP support, so I can use the account from multiple computers. Y!Mail does not have POP/IMAP support in the free version, last time I checked.

I think it eases people into a work in which they have no privacy.
