I try to have no more than four addresses going at a time:
1. Work
2. Friends, family, and signing up for free services that I want to identify myself with
3. Commercial transactions (anybody who has my credit card)
4. Anonymous address (which I use with websites that require signup but I feel have no business asking me). I personally use my real identity online for historical reasons, but if I didn't, I'd use this one.
[Edit: to answer your other question, they all get spam]
- thefool 16y agoDo you ever use your college one?
- frossie 16y agoWell I don't have one (is this a US thing? you get email for life when you get to college?) but I wouldn't anyway - I don't self-identify with institutions as a rule. Edit: Really I would recommend you get your own domain (not a joke one) and use an email address there which you can carry around forever. You can always forward to gmail or whatever if you don't want to deal with spam filtering etc.
