I think a lot of the fingerpointing at Google has been ridiculous and way overblown. But there have been a few things, and I think the services they've shut down (eg, Wave and Labs and now Reader) are a good indicator of their new "focus".
With the death of Reader, my last shred of goodwill is basically gone. I've used an @gmail.com address for the past six years despite having my own domain, and now that's going to stop as I gradually transition off most of their services.
- OGinparadise 14y agoalways use your name@YOURdomain.com. Google, yahoo and MS can always cut you off in a heartbeat. With your own domain, you can forward it to a new provider. That's why I will 'never' embrace cloud that tightly.
