Gmail now 2 gig, who wants an invite?

Gmail has increased to 2 gig, and is actually increasing storage by a small amount continuously. Check the home page to see the counter increasing.

If there’s anybody left on the planet who’d like an invite who hasn’t got one already, I have 50 of 'em. Email me at revtim (at) gmail (dot) com, with an appropriate subject line.

Please and thanks!!

Mail is on the way.

I also have 50 invites left, so come and get them. Email me at: holger (dot) schneider (at) gmail (dot) com.

I am unfamilure with this. What is it exactly? I would like the capability to send/receive that size info. Thanks

Gmail is a free mail account from Google. It’s currently still in beta according to Google, but I never had any problems with it. It has a current storage limit of about 2GB (compare to 2MB for a free hotmail account) and that is still growing. The only way you can get a gmail account is by invitation from someone who already has one, that’s why revtim and I are saying: email us and we’ll send you an invitation.

Gmail is fully POP capable, so you can just use your normal email client, or you can access it via the web just like hotmail. You can also search your emails, and with 2GB of storage you can basically save all your emails in your gmail account almost indefinitely.

It’s web-based email. You can’t send attachments that are really large though, each email is limited to a 10mb attachment.

To send larger files, you might try www.sendthisfile.com or www.yousendit.com .

Gmail help page says that maximum attachment size is 10MB

And I see that I was beat to the answer.

I’ve got nothing but good things to say about Gmail. I’ve also got a bunch of invites available. wayward at gmail.com will get you one (or more)

rachel dot barry at gmail dot com… 50 invites. Remember when they only gave you 1, and then 5? My, how things have changed…

I have 100 invites (from 2 separate Gmail accounts).

E-mail robin dot cartwright at gmail dot com or robinsportfolio at gmail dot com.

People were selling invites on eBay for 80 bucks a pop!

Yeah, and now we can’t seem to get rid of them. :frowning:

Yeah. I suspect when they finally go out beta and anybody can just sign up without an invite, there won’t be a huge increase in users. Almost everybody who wants one can get one with pretty minimal effort.

I also have close to 50 to give away. Just adding my name to the list here. Email me if you need one.

sadpunk gmail com (50 invites) if anyone wants a few. They aren’t going anywhere, I think. I do wonder why they’re increasing storage space.

Yahoo anounced they are going to a 1gig on free accounts, so I suspect this is a response to that.

I bet they had this all pre-planned and even pre-implemented for when the Yahoo or MSN was going to go to 1gig.

I’ve got fifty as well, if any of the previous posters run out. I’m at nemontrezpasvoszhambes at gmail dot com.

mine, (slightly easier to type than Stark Raven Mad’s up there) is hawklight at gmail dot com.

I’ve got 50, too. :slight_smile:

Gmail hasn’t been very exclusive for a long time now. If you aren’t in already, easiest way is to check http://isnoop.net/gmail/ and get as many invites as you like. They have hundreds of thousands of those.

The really cool thing is Gmail Drive, which turns your Gmail account into a virtual drive on your computer. When you store a file there, it sends that file as an email with an attachment. If you want to retrieve it, it just looks like a normal file (no email), and you simply click on the icon like you would for something stored locally.

BTW, the Gmail people have hinted that they are not going to stop at two gigabytes, and will continue increasing it in line with demand.
