Seeing the Light with Goowy

In the process of doing my interview with Jeremy Suriel, I got a chance to really dig into Goowy and test some of its features. After doing that, I must say, I don’t think there’s a better web based e-mail client out there.

There are a couple of things that really stand out. One is the calendar. This has always been the deal-killer for me with other e-mail applications. I needed a robust calendar that would replace Outlook, and Goowy does the trick. It’s not a total replacement for Outlook, but it does everything I need and it’s intuitive to use.

The second thing is the ease of the transition. I was able to set up Goowy so that I can send e-mail from ryan@ryanstewart.net and have it show up as the From account. This was something I couldn’t do with Google and it cost me money to do with Yahoo. I could also quickly import my contacts from Outlook. It was simple to get started and now I’m totally hooked. This is a fun app to use, regardless of the fact that it’s Flash.
