Ah, but a gmail address is not the sign of bad habits. You can use a
gmail address with an IMAP and SMTP client. You can use a gmail address
without tying your entire life to it.

Who doesn't have a throw-away gmail address to order semi-legal drugs
online, anyway? ;-)

This is an interesting idea.

Yes, sharing tips and tricks to work more efficiently would be a good
idea.

Although, I must say, I do not think I have any tricks: all my uses are
pretty straightforward. The most I have is an init script that populates
my shell environment and history with useful commands.
