How Google And Gmail Dominated Consumer Email

  • When Gmail was released to the public on April 1, 2004, many people thought it was a prank. Gmail offered one gigabyte of storage and robust email search. These features, among others, have helped to make Gmail the most used email service in the world with 1.5 billion users.
    Gmail has come a long way since its inception. It stands as the most dominant online email service with more than 1.5 billion global active users. It has gone from a small experiment to an important piece of Google's G Suite lineup. But the road to the top hasn't been without a few bumps, including a rocky start.
    By the time Google started working on the service in 1999, Yahoo Mail already had 12 million active users and Microsoft's Hotmail had about 30 million.
    Paul Buchheit, who was employee No. 23 at Google, fought for the online email service, but executives didn't understand how a search company could benefit from online email. Some executives pushed back at the time, according to multiple reports. Buchheit created the service as a "20%" project, which is an informal program Google has sometimes offered employees to work on projects of their choosing.
    When Gmail actually launched, people thought it was a joke -- literally. Becaase it was announced on April Fool's Day 2004, people wondered whether the company was pulling one over them. But once users realized it was real, it became one of a number of free email services alongside Microsoft's Hotmail and Yahoo Mail, which were some of the first to introduce web-based email in the 1990s.
    Monetizing Gmail has been a point of contention within the company. Some people argued that in order for Gmail to have the most reach, it needed to be supported by advertising, rather than user subscription fees. The ad model won out but, even before it launched to the general public in 2007, Google got heat for scanning Gmail emails and using the contents for targeted advertising.
    The company drew scrutiny again in 2018 after Google admitted to allowing app developers scan Gmail accounts for ad targeting. It would come up again through 2019 as Congress grilled Google alongside other tech companies over privacy. Over the summer, the company admitted to keeping a list of items users purchase using Gmail.
    Even though the email service didn't start doing exceedingly well compared to competition until 2012, it continues to innovate. The company still aggressively targets both consumer and enterprise users. It also continues to add innovative new features such as Smart Compose, which uses artificial intelligence to predict responses.

      L'aviateur de TRPG, most likely the time Google tried to be Facebook with their G+ social media system, but they've failed miserably. Before and after that (I came to Gmail as soon as it was widely available and I don't think Google even owned YT back then) Gmail wasn't required on a YT account.

    Google "Alphabet" is an advertising company. I am not quite sure why anyone would trust their important information with them.
    Microsoft on the other hand is a business company, protecting privacy is their business.

      @@maxant4285 Can you give us some good examples for people, whose use-case is registering at important websites with that e-mail (and not a secret encrypted communication)? That is, the password recovery has to be safe from attacks, it doesn't get deleted if you never log in via web interface, and doesn't force a spam filter on you, you are guaranteed never to lose the e-mail if the freemail company goes bankrupt (otherwise you won't ever recover your accounts), has a proper security... And other conditions that noone talks about.

      I don't know, it's true that a financial incentive should make it more likely they'll take care of you, but the company doesn't seem that large or old, they "make no guarantees about the continual availability of all services", and as usually, if they decide to accuse you of breaking ANY arbitrary rules, which includes German laws, whatever would they be tomorrow, "the account can be blocked by Posteo without notice". There's also the implicit risk of forgetting to pay, e.g. if your circumstances of life change, and for whatever reason you won't manage to keep track of this invoice. Anyway, there are many other paid providers that are at least just as good in my opinion, but noone prioritizes what I mentioned above.

    I love Google Calendar for scheduling events but I use Spark for my email organization. I have used Gmail (of course!) before but after I saw the design and organization of Spark, I really liked it. Also, it can add my school’s email account (which uses Outlook)
    Note: This just happened 2 years ago, so I’m unaware of the new updates for Gmail.
    If anyone suggests any cool features that Gmail can do that Spark cannot, I will happily hear them! 😊
