Your daily online habits can be hard to break.  

This is especially true when it comes to checking in on your Gmail. Gmail’s huge storage space and integration with Google Docs and Spreadsheets have made  it one of the most popular email clients online.

Gmail has become such a big part of everyday life that most users can’t imagine life without it anymore. If you have a Gmail account, then you already know that all it takes is one habitual click here, an automatic sign-in there, and one memorized password in a box.

Before you know it, you’ve spent hours on websites like Facebook, MySpace, and YouTube. But it takes a different type of website to convert that online distraction into online productivity.
