Web Email: Gmail

[Caesar_MG]

Has anyone heard of Gmail?



It's Google's foray into the web email arena. The thing I like about Gmail is that with 2.7+ GB (yeah, that's Gigabytes) of space, you can pretty much keep everything. Add in the fact that you can search your email with Google's powerful search tool, and I think it's a definite winner.

There are other benefits, like the ability to send large attachments, aggressive spam filters, built-in virus scan, conversation view (optional), no op-up ads, no banner ads, completely free, availible in 38 different languages (including German), and free auto-forwarding, free POP3 access, and built-in chat (if that floats your boat).

Now, it's still in a Beta phase, which means you can only get an account if someone that has Gmail sends you an invitation. That's the only drawback.

About Gmail

Now, I mentioned that Gmail is by invitation only. If you would like an account, just send me an email through this forum, and I will reply with an invite.

Be advised, though, I only have 25 invitations left (but once you sign up, you will have 100 invitations you can send out to people YOU know, as well).

ehm, I have a gmail account myself, and I got it about a year ago, and the thing is that you will NEVER run out of invites, because they fill up again. That's gmail's marketing stragety.

ehm,

I've had mine since Iraq. And I only have 25 left.

I was trying to do something nice for the people that didn't have one.

sorry, didn't mean to be disrespectful or anything, it is just my experience

[veronikamm]

After a full year I still have 98 invites left and I have sent out at least 30 or 40 of them...

Thanks Caesar. Gmail is a really cool service. I like it. By the way, I only received 15 invites when I signed up.
