One will agree that Gmail or Google Mail with its threaded messages, spam filtering and vast storage space is one of the best webmail providers.
In fact, we use it for both our personal accounts and work accounts using Google Apps. However that also poses a problem: many of us end up having to maintain two separate Google accounts, which means we have to swap logins whenever our Gmail, Reader, or other data is stored under the other account. Fortunately, there may be a way out of this juggling act.
As today’s SXSW panel on Gmail came to a close, the panelists revealed that they have to deal with the same problems, as they have “@google.com” accounts for work and standard Gmail accounts for personal use. And they know it’s a pain. But one last juicy tidbit: they’re working to resolve the problems with multiple namespaces that users have to deal with.
There’s no time frame, and we have no idea what form the feature will take. But at least we know Google is working on it.
