Anyone want to try Gmail?

I have 6 gmail invitations, and I thought of my friends here at DIY. First 6 people to PM me get an invite.

BTW, Gmail is highly cool. I've had it for months.

One down, 5 left. Any takers?

If not, I'll give them to people even stranger to me than you all.

Exclamation

sounds good to me. g-mail is googles mail for anyone that does not know about it. i think that you get 1 GB of storage and it is invite only right now. good luck adn let worldbuilder know and maybe he can hook you up.

Well, there's 4 left now...

Anyone else?

I figured everyone on Earth knew this stuff, but I shouldn't have thought that.

Yeah, gmail is NOT available to the general public as of yet. The only way to get it now is to be invited. Gmail is in Beta, and it has a way to go, but it will basically pummel Yahoo! mail when it gets released, I can pretty much promise you.

It's an awesome online mail system.

Ok, they're all gone! To those who got one, I hope you enjoy it. To everyone else, I apologize, but I took people in the order in which they PM'ed. Easiest way to do it.

I am always getting invitations, and this forum will be where I post when I get more. So, keep your eyes out!!! I'm sure there's more to come. And to those who got the 6 I had... Make sure that when YOU get invitations, you hand 'em out. Pay it forward!

Cheers,

Chris

Jesus... I didn't get any invitations for the first 6 months, and after getting the last 6, I just got 6 MORE!

Who wants 'em? Same deal, first 6 people to PM me get 'em.

I think the amount you get is based on how many emails you receive or send.

Thanks very much for the one you sent me.

No sweat. That's what I heard, too, but I don't see how that could be it because I have been sending and recieving e-mails out the wazoo for 6 months.

Within a week of me getting my account all that time ago, I had made it my secondary e-mail account. I liked it that much.

Anyway, whatever...
