Hey Google! I Dont Care About Hangouts, I Just Want To Read My Email
Marissa Mayer, please build us all a better Gmail over at Yahoo. Gmail is a disaster. That's right, I said it. There's an undercurrent of frustration surrounding Google's webmail service, which is still growing like crazy (likely due to Android activations), but is now widely known to be "painfully slow." The more you use it, the worse it gets. Even Y Combinator co-founder Paul Graham called out Gmail as painfully slow in a recent essay detailing ambitious startup ideas, saying that even if someone were to build a service that was only as good as Gmail, but fast, that alone would allow them to pull away users from Google's service.Despite this, what does Google do? It keeps adding bells and whistles to Gmail. Video hangouts? I don't want video hangouts in my Gmail. I want to read my email messages. Or rather, feel free to add video hangouts to Gmail, after you fix the damned thing.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/zbnHtIOtw8I/
