Gmail was my life line to my husband, family, and friends while I was deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq. Because of Gmail's simplicity and low need for a lot of internet data (without a lot of advertisements and graphics like other services), it was easy for me to read and reply to my emails while I was serving my combat tours. Because the internet was sooooo sllllooooowwwww over there, using Gmail was a snap.
