Why Switch?

You may have noticed a similar message to this on the bottom of an email you received from me:
 
I'm replacing my gmail account with this one from HEY. Your emails to my old email will be forwarded, but, if you have a moment, consider replacing my contact info :)

I thought long and hard about this switch, given I've had my old gmail account for over a decade and costs $99/year less than my this new HEY account - not to mention the non-monetary switching costs, like writing this note.

I'm a big believer in using the best tools for the job - and traditional email tools just aren't the best. I hate email, but need it to live in this world. HEY is a better tool to get the job done.
