Hi All

I guess  we  all have  our  own   favorite     email  systems  :  some  of us  use  the  local  service  provider and  others use   web-based   email  (  e.g  @  MSN,  @ hotmail,  @gmail  @yahoo   etc  )

I have been using    @hotmail.com  for  over   12  years  and also for  instant  messaging.   I get  unlimited   storage  - so it  seems  (  over  7,000  messages  and  attachments   stored  indefinitely) .  Recently   Hotmail  upgraded  and the   new  software  is  SUPER  user-freindly  !  Also  Hotmail   just  merged   with  Skype  for  instant  messaging and   free on-line  phone calls

But  beware  of   gmail  -    Google  is  blocked  in China   so  gmail  addresses  are also  blocked

Cheers
Peter

Thanks for letting us know that! I had no idea, guess I am spoiled to all kinds of access resources here in the US.  Look forward to learning more about the current day artists from you!  Jo

Peter,
  Thank you for letting us know - I didn't know gmail addresses were blocked in the PRC because of Google. I guess the PRC is not as "new" yet as we'd thought.
Shabbat Shalom,
Joey
