I have a personal email addy and a one used for online stuff but I find now that my online stuff email is used for Google + it's mixed with other stuff like people off Trademe auctions, and bank people etc ... and my Android phone is synced too ... It's all great that we have Google Now and social media with all this integration. How do you guys manage it? If I used my primary email addy for all this stuff would you do that then you get all this online stuff at least the stuff more relevant to yourself like social media, google maps but there may be more junk mail .... but then again you may want your transactions there also like travel flights, accom etc .. rental car so it can get messy again ...

1363526	2013-12-24 01:53:00	Travel booking, shops and so on....of course I use my one and only email address, why wouldn't I? Their continous spam and special offer emails .... :confused:	Nomad (952)
1363527	2013-12-24 02:09:00	Unsubscribe from them when they come through then, or better still don't sign up in the first place :p I have one address I use for everything, I get next to no spam... I was getting zero until a few friends were dumb enough to click spam links and submit their address book via Hotmail / Outlook whatever, suddenly my address is out in the world being spammed every few days now. Thanks *******s :p	Chilling_Silence (9)

1363529	2013-12-24 02:32:00	But you know I do like a sharp deal don't mind the emails just not in my primary email addy ... $99 fare to Ozzie, half priced meals and accom :D 8c off BP gasoline. That's the thing with social media esp like Google+. You sign up and they enable Google+ for you automatically. Then every non personal email you get you automatically get a notification to add as your next best mate ... and when you thought you were clever to sync your phone contacts to Google now you get the updates to your phone so you have new buddies added to your phone contacts too. Hence why I have been using 2 email addy one personal and one other. But now with phone sync. You don't mind if your good friends phone contact are sync with their social media too and they keep track of your diary .. for travel etc.. then now you kinda have 2 personal email addy's. One personal personal and one social media personal of those you know but ... what about those shops etc. To max integration it is ... about doing all with one email addy. Mail from family to your friends to your travel stuff to be reminded to what specials are on offer ... but all the spam ..	Nomad (952)
