Late last night, I read about a Gmail security vulnerability which, I think, was the equivalent of having your sense brutally but efficiently slapped into yourself when you're really drunk...
Reading the silly things Dave Winer writes is a very complicated experience. First you laugh, sometimes even out loud, despite of the fact that nobody really does that. Unfortunately, you very quickly realize that it's not a joke. Too quickly. You choke on your laugh, taste of vomit ensues, and already it's become a rather disgusting experience...
I found a Yahoo Group via my referrer logs earlier, and since I had to join it to be able to see what they were saying about my previous post, I figured I would. After all, using Gmail, as opposed to Hotmail, I'm not really worried about spam anymore...
Using Gmail for, well, a day now, I've come to appreciate it quite a bit. Comparing it with Hotmail is not very fair. In fact, doing so is sort of an insult to Gmail, as far as I'm concerned, because it's entirely different, and it's on the exact opposite side of the sucking scale...

I suggest that, for the sake of clarity, written accounts of President Bush's statements ought to also account for Bush's humorous little jests. Because, quite frankly, they don't translate very well to text, especially not in official statements which one might expect a little more seriousness from...
Some recent articles have said that it would be "creepy" to have ads served on matters related to the e-mail you're reading from a friend (although I personally don't see why), but articles regarding Gmail's potential abuse of one's privacy is first and foremost regarding the fact that "computers will read your e-mail"...
