Goodbye Yahoo ... Hello GMail!

In case you missed it, I broke up with Yahoo last week. I expect it will be a long drawn out process that will end with me changing logins, getting my contacts and other stuff I care about and walking out of the door. The long drawn out part is because they are charging me and in order to forward or pop my Yahoo email. So, I paid my $20 bucks for the year and started moving out.

In my travels to your offices, I know that many of you are facing the same challenge. You love GMail, but you've had that darn Yahoo email for so long :( I get it. Breaking up is hard to do, but I am committed to moving on ... I mean GMail is (1) FREE and (2) awesome. But I talk about GMail all the time, so you already know that part.

For more on how to take that first step ... watch the vid:

Yey Google - Multiple Signatures in GMail!

Ask and you shall receive. It never made sense to me why I couldn't have multiple signatures in GMail, and alas ... my dream has been answered. In true Google fashion, they did it better than I imagined.

Let me set the scene for you - my 3rd quarter Tech Daze class is, "Making GMail Your Online Outlook". So I'm teaching in our Rockledge Office last week and going through my little rant about how important your email signature is these days and wha .... ???!!! The new signature box in my GMail has a drop-down arrow that allows me to save a signature for each account I set up to send email from. YEY!!!








To set up your signatures in GMail:
Click on Settings
Scroll down on the General tab
For any account that you set-up in GMail to "send mail as" you can add a signature

Side note: If you have not done so already, I encourage you to set up your company email as an account you can send mail out on through GMail. Make GMail your online Outlook! If you are using GMail already to read your email, it just makes sense.

Now for the fun part, add your signature for each account! You can do a bit of formatting, add a photo, links, etc. Don't forget to save your changes at the bottom of the page.
