A larger percentage of people are now using Gmail for communication. Some use Yahoo and others use company domain addresses or similar ones anyway. Gmail is quite strict on security and I will tell you that finding people on Gmail is almost impossible. Well, at least from Google anyway.

There are other places that you might come across that might be capable of finding people on Gmail. These would be people finder sites. People finder sites that would be capable of this are the ones that carry out reverse look ups. There are a few that claim to be able to carry out reverse email lookups and you might be able to use these for finding people on Gmail. Otherwise there is no directory from where email addresses can be searched.

Unlike other internet service providers (ISP's) that include your internet protocol (IP) address in the header section of your email, Gmail does not. It would be quite easy for someone with the appropriate skills to trace someone's location from and an IP address. So your best chances of finding people on Gmail is try the people locator sites, though I'm certain that the service comes at a fee.

There is one possible way that you can use for finding people on Gmail although it is not a perfect method. You can access the share this calendar tab, enter the email address, click add person and then save. When you come back you will find the person's name and other details there. This method is flawed for various reasons. One being that a lot of people sign up with the same name that appears in the email add or even alias names and so cannot be said to ne reliable.

I will however refer you to one place where you might be able to find people based on their email address. Try a search on www.wink.com.
