Let’s See … Which Persona Will I Be This Time?

I’ve been using Zoho for, I guess, a couple of years now.  They offer a great suite of online tools: text editor, presentation manager, spreadsheet database, and a lot more.  Unfortunately, they — like just about everyone else — are overshadowed by Google.  Google Docs is more well-known.

Anyway, Zoho’s just added Webmail.  I got access automatically, by way of my existing Zoho login.  This got me thinking about how many email addresses I have.  Seven, I think.  (There may be others I’ve forgotten, and this doesn’t include messaging from my Facebook and LinkedIn pages.)  Anyway, on any given day I can use AOL (got it when I signed up to use Xdrive), Gmail (part of my Google account), Hotmail (got it for Windows Live SkyDrive), Hushmail (not a throw-in; it’s an encrypted Webmail service), Jenkins (’natch), Yahoo (my main Webmail account for like the last decade), and, of course, Zoho.

Most of these email accounts are throw-ins that I got as part of a bigger service.  I obviously don’t need ‘em all — in fact, I don’t even access some of them for months at a time.  I’ll never forget my first email address back in 1994 or early 1995: dang@telebase.com.  Command line access, no graphics, yup … those were the days.
