Switching from Yahoo to Google Mail, Calendar

Reasons for the switch:
  1. More responsive, faster application.
  2. Ability to tag multiple labels for the same email.
  3. Ability to create an event into Google Calendar from an email.
  4. Able to handle different email IDs (i.e. a personal and business email) from the same mailbox. So multiple mailboxes can share the same set of contacts.
  5. Clearer threaded discussion view.
