Want G-Mail? - Jun 29, 2004 19:02
If you havent heard of it yet G-Mail is Googles email service. Thing is it' s an invite only deal for now. Well I got my own Gmail account and if ne1 wants an invite just email me at massacre20xx@gmail.com So far it seems pretty useful heres a list of features:
A Google approach to email.

Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of webmail, built on the idea that you should never have to delete mail and you should always be able to find the message you want. The key features are:

Search, don' t sort.
Use Google search to find the exact message you want, no matter when it was sent or received.

Don' t throw anything away.
1000 megabytes of free storage so you' ll never need to delete another message.

Keep it all in context.
Each message is grouped with all its replies and displayed as a conversation.

No pop-up ads. No untargeted banners.
You see only relevant text ads and links to related web pages of interest.


So ya pretty useful. Just email me and there ya go.

That sounds kinda cool. I kept seeing gmail invitations on ebay, wondering what exactly it was.

Cool. I just logged into G-Mail and I had some invites there too!
Anyone want one? Send me a PM. All those who get invites, please share them & dont sell them. If I do run out before I get your request, go to " Gmail Swap" (google the term for their url). Offer a simple unique item to swap there (I just offerd a photo of something in my house.) And I am sure you will get a Gmail account pretty quickly. I received one within 30mins of posting a swap. Too many people seem to have gmail now anyway, and even when I signed up, the address I really wanted was already gone Oh well.

Hmmm I haven' t really heard anything about this gmail except in thread topics that I never bothered to read.
This 1 gig of storage might be something good to have especially since my hotmail account is peppered daily with spam and I will lose my main email address after this year because it is my school email and I will be graduating.
How is it for getting spam?

Those who got invites, should be able to invite 1 or 2 others. I think I gave out 3 to ones form this forum so hopefully they read the requests.

Another source is Kevinrose.com hes the guy from the g4tv show and many have replied with invites for ppl to use. just go there and scroll down to one of the recent topics.
