So I have a number of Gmail invites now. If anyone would like one, PM me. First two PMs with a name and e-mail address (needed for the invite form) get addresses. Gotta save a couple for my other friends, too.

For anyone who has forgotten, Gmail is Google's new e-mail service still currently in Beta. It comes with one gigabyte of storage space (I think my old POP folders never got much beyond 30-50, heh) and has nifty features like message labels (like folders, only you can apply multiple ones to each message) and the ability to search your e-mail with its own mini-search engine. It's quite nice. [addsig]

Ho ho, sounds very interesting. I need this since my hotmail is maxed. And I must reserve Floydian.

How'd you get these invites? [addsig]

I think I got an invite left, I'll check. There's another way to get an account ... register at www.blogger.com, write a silly log, and in your control panel, you'll see an invitation

So if Hugh and fizscy are up for it, we could use these two initial invites to get everyone here a gmail account? Kind of like a pyramid scheme but in reverse so it actually works

You get them in your inbox after a while ... Gmail hands them out to registered users, you just have to wait.

Yeah, but that's when they want more users, and they give it to random people. In short, could be a loooong wait. [addsig]

Would be nice to have a delete post option, then I could delete the old one and not make double or triple posts.

Anyways, gmails given to Gwil and Tracer Bullet. Hugh should have some invites. [addsig]

You can edit your posts. And I appear not to have any invites at this particular moment in time.
