Gmail Tutorial

As part of a upcoming training session for Library staff I am helping a colleague with, here is a tutorial I prepared on how to get yourself a free Gmail account.
I am also doing tutorials on iGoogle, Google Gadgets, Google Reader, and how to place these on your iGoogle homepage.
I will post them when completed!

Get yourself a free Gmail email address
Log into  www.mail.google.com/

Type your First name
Type your Last name
Type in your desired login name  
Click on    Check availability!

It must be at least 8 characters, choose something you will remember
Ideally you should choose something with a good strength 
This will tell you how strong your password is:

Re-enter your password

Click on 

Read the three things you really should know
Click on I’m ready – show me my account
Click on the “settings” link in the upper-right corner of your screen

Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on Always use https
