What is gmail?

Sjakihata
08-26-2004, 14:10
google mail.

basically, you have an inbox of 1000mb, no limit on attachments (send/receive), google search engine to find the mail you are looking for, mails are in conversations and a lot more nifty stuff. It is in beta, that is why you need invites to the mail, and a lot of stuff are being added.

Sjakihata,
can you tell us how it differs from yahoo mail ?
or at least point us somewhere on the web.
I mean real features, not marketing with snoring declarations.
I'm just curious, really.
because yahoo is offering similar stuff (for a few months now), and i still don't exactly know what the differences between the two are...

Sjakihata
08-26-2004, 19:47
some more official information

Blodrast
08-26-2004, 20:29
hmm, think i've already seen that. but it might have changed since last time i looked at it. i thought you might have had more "inside" info, seeing as how you were offering one account ;)
thanks for the link, anyway.

Damn i'm too late ~:mad: , Sjakihata, do you have any more? :jumping: ~:doh:

Sjakihata
08-28-2004, 01:19
yep, but only one, as soon I got more I'll reply in this thread.

blodrast, I've got a lot of info, but all features are mentioned and im too lazy to type. Anything specific you wanted to know?

Sjakihata
08-28-2004, 01:33
ahh!

Just received five more invites and I am giving away two. To those who want them please supply me with an email somehow.

thank you

Blodrast
08-28-2004, 01:49
nah, relax. I'm a lazy typer myself.
I guess what I was really curious about was differences between it and Yahoo (besides the obvious ones, such as being able to use the Google engine to search through your emails).
Of course, you realize, this is another proof of my laziness: the proper way to compare them would be to wait until they're publicly available (or I get one somehow), and do it myself. But that would necessitate an effort on my side, wouldn't it ?
And besides, I was curious now ~:)

But seriously, it's okay. There's no hurry, and it's only a matter of curiosity for me; no need to advance your carpal tunnel syndrome over it ~:cheers:

Sjakihata
08-28-2004, 12:33
I've got no idea what yahoo mail is anyway, so I wouldn't know how to compare them ~D

Hey mate, I use aol for my regualr mail and they put so many mails in the spam folder that dont qualify as spam it is disturbing!! it was not blocked per se it was misdirected to my spam folder which I neglected to check or I would have found it sooner and not inquired of TK about an invite, sorry for the mishap no harm, and thanks for trying to get the invite to me, I hope you can send the invite to someone else...LOS

I just looked on Mapquest and realized that you're just west of Daytona and just north of Orlando. Is Paisley a large town? I don't ever having been there specifically.

It looks like this storm is going to move very slowly, we're probably looking at 24-30 hours of non-stop rain and Cat. 1 force winds (70-80 mph) The thing about it is that it'll be moving slowly so we're probably going to be looking at major flood problems if it hangs over the state for the amount of time that its being forecast.

Stay safe LOS and Black Ship, we'll be hunkering down here! :knight:

09-04-2004, 20:23
I cannot believe that I didn't bother checking back into this thread when I saw that the first Gmail invite had gone! I thought that was it. Alas woe is me and all that.

Any invites left to hand out, take pity on a poor sad fool who thought that it was all over last week.

Anyone taking pity yet? Just in case...


sirchauncy@lycos.co.uk

thanks

Teutonic Knight
09-05-2004, 02:10
I've sent you both invites.

And Ah dut I send yours to ah_dut@hotmail.com

Sjakihata
09-05-2004, 16:17
I've got plenty now, I can hand out some more! Let us make it a mission to supply all .org'ers with a gmail. Everyone who gets one has to hand out at least one in this thread!

Any takers?

Somebody Else
09-05-2004, 17:31
I suppose I should jump on the band-wagon and offer an invite... PM me or something to let me know. First come first served, and no queue jumping!

P.S. It might be an idea to post me, because I'm a moron, and unlikely to work out how to read a PM.

ah_dut
09-05-2004, 19:14
thanks TK, PS sjak, how do you hand out or get invitations?

Sjakihata
09-08-2004, 02:19
They come automatically, in a little bar in the top area, it says how many you've got. They usually come in bands of five. Then you click the link and enter an email + name and send it, rather easy actually!

ah_dut
09-08-2004, 17:58
thanks, not got any yet though
