Gmail, another Scalable Service for Startups

I think it's getting more and more easy to start up your own knowledge-driven venture. For a couple of years now, I have been managing my own server (together with my friend). Managing your own server is a pain, but a must if you are a tech entrepreneur.

Luckily, lately there have been services popping up that alleviate a lot of IT-pains. This week, I have been looking for services that allow me to externalize the hosting of my Email service. A few services like SproutIt's Mailroom came close, but didn't quite cut it.

Then, I found out, that I can actually attach my domain names using Gmail! Also, I can use IMAP, POP etc. I now have most of my domain names attached to it, and I pay JACK SHIT!

All thanks to another great article from ReadWriteWeb.
