1. myuser.name@gmail.com

2. my.user.name@gmail.com.

.

.

.

n. m.y.u.s.e.r.n.a.m.e@gmail.com

benefit of it is you can have multiple sign ups in social networking sites like twitter with single account as for twitter will treat all of above to be different person or email-address, and all of above account email will end up in your mailbox my.username@gmail.com.

Try it yourself and enjoy.
