One thing you can do with a gmail address is described in this article.
http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,2845,1865166,00.asp
Basically, when you sign up for, let'S say, wow.
You could have your real address being vosskah@gmail.com.
To make it easy to track and filter (even to the trash)
You can sign up as vosskah+wow_crap@gmail.com
It will send emails to your normal address but the tag will allow you to filter it and also figure out who sells your address.

Neat
I use a 2nd email to sign up on random sites so that crap doesnt happen, but I might give this a go
