NWFlyer 2 #3 February 14, 2005 Yeah it's gone from auctioning them off to the highest bidder on eBay to not being able to give them away. Makes you wonder why google doesn't just open it up to everyone at this point..."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

davedlg 0 #4 February 14, 2005 I think it's a rather clever marketing scheme they devised here...almost everyone I know now has a Gmail account. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingbunky 3 #7 February 14, 2005 50 here as well. i think it was smart of them to open it up this way. first, they created a good buzz over it, made it kind of exclusive, plus they spread out the load on their servers better. if they just opened it up to the public all at once, they probably would have gotten swamped with registrations."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

GTAVercetti 0 #9 February 14, 2005 QuoteWhat is the advantage of it? is it free like hotmail? I don't get it. Not only do you get a gig, but messages are grouped by conversation rather than time/date so all message between you and someone else are grouped together to easily see history. You can archive and then use google to search all your emails. There is no real load time because the page does not need to refresh to go from 'Inbox' to "compose', etc. I like it alot.Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.
