Google Offering Email at yourdomain
Many months ago I got the idea that Gmail should offer their email @yourdomain.com Much like everyone.net and other companies do, but use the awesome gmail service to do it. I explained to them how this would give them more ad impressions and be a win win for everyone.
I went in to great detail on how other companies offer this and how it would help google and the webmasters that offer it. Google never took the time to email back. OK, well maybe they hate the idea.
Well I notice that they are now beginning to do this as they are talking about it on their blog. Here is what they say:
Big mail on campus
San José City College (SJCC) has embarked on a technology improvement program, and for the first time will be offering student email accounts. That’s where we come in. We’re testing a new service with the school by hosting Gmail accounts with SJCC domain addresses (like student@jaguars.sjcc.edu), plus admin tools for efficient account management. Massive storage and features that tame the most unruly inboxes, like powerful mail search, conversation view for messages, and a fast interface, make Gmail very handy for students. Together, we’re pleased to provide this channel for better communications and a stronger community for all 10,000 SJCC students. If your school, business or organization is interested in following SJCC’s lead, let us know. to me it seems that Google customer service is going the way of microsoft… not caring, putting you on hold, and blah blah blah. Too bad. I can not wait though until they get this service to all websites! hey! Maybe yahoo will beat them to it, that would be sweet!
