I have 6 invitations for people to join gmail (i.e. Google Mail). So I'll invite the first 6 people who reply to this post, and are interested.

Gmail is sort of like Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail, but much better. The whole interface is kind of cool, you can track conversations easier, and you have a GB of mail storage.

Ah, nice of you to do so, redink1

Oh God...

Merlin...youve done a service to not only everyone here, but to those that Im gonna send the link too.

This is nothing, but spying by legal means through bait-and-switch tactics...I remember how social historians have said the internet is the greatest invention of this century before the tv or telephone simply because the access to it is the same the world over! The greatest tool for information perhaps...and unsolicited or unsupervised...til this!

Fight the power!,

Yes, g-mail scans you e-mail to provide "content based ad's". WHile I don't care about that, they can tell in stats what type of e-mai lyour recieve and all that. They could basically tell is 80% of your mail was beast porn related or not. Also Gmail openly admitted that when you delete your mail, it's not really deleted. So, make your own deductions.

If you want, I can get you 50 megs e-mail access with a user@dinkworld.com address. Just e-mail WC@dinkworld.com and ask nicely...complementing my ass helps too.

Hmm, interesting read still. But I don't have those various Gmail accounts to use them for most of my daily mail (I'd rather have POP3 instead of webmail), but I just think it's nice to have.. I mean, everyone with Hotmail will likely switch to Gmail one day or another.. and then I already have enough storage

Hey, did you know that ALL e-mail is sent unencrypted through the internet? That means ANYONE along the way can just read it, archive it, and keep track of it? Undoubtedly several government agencies do just that, and probably quite a few Internet Service Providers.

Hell, if you're using standard POP3 to check your e-mail, anyone can even get your password!

If you trust e-mail for anything at all, unless its encrypted with pgp or on a dedicated intranet, then you've been quite silly for some time.

And if you use Google for anything, they keep track of every search that you make too. Amazing, now they know you've been searching for naked pictures of the Olsen Twins fighting squirrels or something.

As long as you know what you're getting into, gmail is a great deal. Unless you're really invested in your privacy (and on the internet, you really don't have any).

Hell, remember all AIM messages and such go right through AOL's servers, and they probably archive it all.

Gmail just decides when you can invite people at random times. Sometimes it will only give you one invitation, sometimes six.

The message appears on the main inbox screen.

I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to.I guess. 
Well, if you want more invites, just invite yourself, send a couple of emails with it back to the host gmail account, wait a day or two, and presto, 6 more invites. And no people, I ain't giving any away. So sorry.
