G-Mail

Anyone here have it? I just got it, and it's awesome.1GB of FREE storage! It's still in beta from right now, but through an invite system, more and more people are getting on. After you've been on a while and used it some, they send you invites for you to send to other people. It's a really cool interface too. It can be hard to get an account though, because everyone every where wants one. There are boards that have a seprate place for people to post invites, but you have to be fast. All invites in a post are usually gone in 30 seconds.

So, anyone else have it?

I'm considering getting it (I have an offer for an invite). But is the 1GB of free storage just for email? Or can you upload anything on there?

It is called mail, not storage.

[madrusty289]

That's why I asked, vaio.

If you e-mail it to yourself, it can store it. I think so anyway.

EDIT: It appears that it does. I sent some pics to a friend, and it is there in my sent folder. I will send something to myself using another e-mail and check for sure.

EDIT2: It does store it. It has a link that is the name of the file, where you can view it, and a link that says download so you can save it to the machine. The interface is really cool too. Only thing I don't like is that you can't set it up to be in outlook express.

If you want to E-Mail me anything, the new address is in my profile.

I just dont know how they can afford to give thousands of gigs of space up.

[guitardrumr123]

Me neither, but whos complaining?

[sutherlandan]

Heh, I wish i could get an invite...
I read that people were selling invites for as much as 100 bucks on ebay!

I've heard of G-Mail. But i heard it was made by Google, and it was an E-mail browser, and you can get 1000 MB FREE for your E-mail storage! It's coming out soon, but still in testing.

Even though its still in beta, you can get invites from Google to give to other people. When and if I get some, before it comes out to the public, I'll post them.

Sounds pretty good!!
Well if i can get into this i sure will. Although for right now the new 100mb inbox that yahoo has is working alright.......

I wonder if this mail will take off and become the next big thing, like hotmail! :eek:

[Bulldozer]

Yahoo's bigger and more popular than hotmail...
