Not to thread crap or anything, but what are you guys going to do when google moves gmail out of beta? Who knows what they'll do when that happens. Maybe they'll charge you, maybe they'll lower the quota size. Or a combo of both. Maybe they'll add real ads, or popups. Maybe they'll sell your gmail address to spammers. Or just read through your emails and grab every address in those and sell those off to spammers...

Just a little food for thought before you all go all out and use gmail as your main email address. I'll stick with my own private mail server myself, I get 120gb+ quota

maybe it will stay exactly the same and everyone will be happy

Then it becomes a hotmail clone, to be used to sign up at websites that require address that you would rather not give your permanent one to. I agree, it's free, but it is not the cure to cancer.

Hi all,

I'm just getting into the freemail thing. unfortunately the few names I was hoping to be available were taking at (caugh) hotmail and yahoo so was hoping to try the g-mail thing if anyone has an account to share, would be vary nice and I'll share back when the day comes. keeping my fingers crossed and have a great 4th to all . .

thanks

V

If someone's got an extra one they don't need, I wouldn't mind having an invite. I hopped on eBay last night to pay a few bucks for one, but no matter how much I bid (within reason - under $10) I got outbid! Someone must have seen it and thought it was an "uber-Invite" or something and worth more $$$ than all the $3 ones.

 

[AznMaverick]

invite me please! thanks!

 

[Archaicknite]

invite me too! Thanks!

 

[spazo]

buchuk buchuk boom boom said the Indian Witch Doctor when the Poor lurker tol him his sad story:
"I, dearest Doctor, have been a lurker on Anandtech for ages. I have lurked and lurked and lurked... but never mustered the courage to register. But then... along came gmail!! now....I need gmail....I want gmail.... and if I dont get my gmail.... I'll have to sit on these forums hitting f5 all year long. So...Please.....PLEASE sir... can you give me a gmail account"

After saying buchuk buchuk boom boom....the Indian Witch Doctor went on to dance in circles around the lurker and drink his secret wine. After all..... he didnt understand english...the poor chap.

He doesn't have a lot of posts, but has been a member of AT for 4 years... that's quite a bit longer than me

Much appreciated!

(And actually my membership in AT goes back further than 2000, but somehow my previous ID, with all of my posts, was deleted...so I had to start over.)

Unlike some others, apparently, I will use my new gmail account only for good. (Meaning I won't try to snag another invite or new account just so I can have more than one!)

Thanks again Chrisbtx!

Forgot to say PM if you can spare a Gmail account thanks and have a nice weekend.

=)

 

[Dogbertt]

Didn't Google just ban Gmail sharing?

 

[Taeen]

Im a lurker here but I cant pass up this deal

Could someone PM me if you have a spare invite?

Thanks

They banned selling invites or creating gmail accounts with intentions to sell them (like GeorgeWBush@gmail.com).

PS. Anyone who has an invite to share, please PM me. Thanks!

Still desperate for a gmail invite if a kind soul could spare one. I'll turn around and give back to others on here if I can.

I expect it to stay the same, but I do have a private email account where I have UNLIMITED storage and unlimited attachment size. That's my main baby, but my gmail account is used for anything I don't want flooding that mailbox....

It's good to be the brother of the owner of one of the biggest ISP providers in Houston

I hope google bans all these invite accounts and starts a lottery when they actually get out of beta.
