Well, the page hasn't been updated since October of 2004, a few months after Gmail was opened into Beta (if Firefox's "Last Modified" details are accurate). I'm nearly certain more accurate email details are out there.

Realize of course that most of America doesn't use Gmail. +1 to Eric for keeping it real.

Why could that be? IMHO, Gmail is superior to Yahoo email in almost every way.

Maybe its not him? I doubt the CEO of Google would have his email up there for all to see and contact him.

Because Yahoo email / Hotmail is good enough for the average user?

But Yahoo sure has the early mover advantage over Gmail... It takes more than good features to make people switch.. people who are methodox and orthodox for Yahoo!!!!

1. The email names aren't transferable

2. The email archives aren't transferable

3. Halo effect from using Yahoo or MSN

4. The other email services works fine for most users

etc.
