The gmail post has gotten a lil big, and after giving out invites to my two nerdyest friends, and insuring another gmail addy for m'self. I have two more invites left. So uhh... who still needs em?

It's really slow right now so uhh, yah please don't try and get one if you have 5 posts or something... there were probably about 50 people who got them ahead of me simply because they were faster. If I know you, (and you haven't flamed me all to recently) then I'm more inclined to invite

I need one. Pretty pleez with sugar on it.

ryju · Jun 23, 2004, 03:45 PM

I wanted to use one of my own invites for my girlfriend, but since I haven't gotten any yet, someone could ever-so kindly send one to me.

So they can sign up. Gmail is still in a closed Beta.

Seriously, I have not had any invite. I feel like will never come as I don't even know anyone personally with an account.

(sigh)

If anyone would like to make me an invite, I'd be very grateful!

goricky you are a LEGEND!!!

I love you man

Millennium · Jun 23, 2004, 04:52 PM

Is it me, or have these things almost become a kind of currency on the Net? Seriously; people are holding contests with GMail invites as the prize.

No thanks, though. Don't have one; don't want one.

dodo_nutter · Jun 23, 2004, 04:56 PM

Is a bit strange. When are these going to be made public?? I suppose if it turns into hotmail with half the world using it you get first pick of names that way.

Im not complaining...ANYTHINGS better than my previous e-mail address

AB^2=BCxAC · Jun 23, 2004, 05:07 PM

OMG, thanks guys!!!

dodo_nutter · Jun 23, 2004, 05:15 PM

SeSawaya · Jun 23, 2004, 05:24 PM

I could use one if no one wants it.

I actually signed my fiance up for the second, so we can both use it. You have no idea how grateful I am to have this (all that space!!!!) for us.

It's made my day!

dodo_nutter · Jun 23, 2004, 05:29 PM

Ahhh...so kind of you! My girlfriends never heard of it and i think she mentioned 'so sad' when i tried explaining the excitement!. Thing is shes ALWAYS complaining about having only 2MB on hotmail.

Dont worry SeSawya, any free invites will be posted here asap!

PM sent!

Yose · Jun 23, 2004, 06:18 PM

Don't have one. Don't want one. Any email coming to me from gmail.com gets deleted.

I'll admit I haven't kept up to date on the Gmail issue but I don't like the idea of anything going through the messages I send to people in order to drive some massive marketing machine.

Wiskedjak · Jun 23, 2004, 07:55 PM

Mine are gone.

See signature.

Considering that Google has apparently significantly increased the number and frequency at which it adds Gmail invites, these things aren't nearly as valuable as they used to be.

Oh well. Despite the fact that I have a two gig (SBC) Yahoo! account and a one gig Gmail account, I still use my 16 meg Fastmail account as my primary e-mail address because it's the only one I have that supports IMAP.

better not use any web-based email provider then.
