And I've heard that the condition is that google scans the emails sent to you and throws out an add on the side that corresponds with the content. Not sure if it's true or not.

Oh, and if anyone has a gmail yet....get me in so I can pass it on to other gt members. gahhh.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

They haven't given me invitation access yet, but when they do, I'll pay it foward to you.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

Yeah, they do. But it's an automated computer script, so it's not like somebody's reading your email. And it's no worse than a banner add from Hotmail.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

People complain too much about the scanning. A remote computer only reads the text. It doesnt keep your personal info. on file and sell it.

And plus, if you dont want your email's scanned, you know what you do? DONT USE GMAIL THEN. ITS THAT SIMPLE

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

Exactly. The point is, we know they're doing it, and we're using the program anyway. That's how we're consenting to them doing it. I couldn't care less. It's the same thing as any other free email system does and I get 500x the storage Hotmail gives me.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

And it seems like in an effort to increase competition.

Yahoo has increased it's mailbox size from 6MB to 100 MB.

So I went to bed using 85% of my mailbox, woke up tis morning with more mail, but only using 5%, but till would want a G-Mail account.

And of course Yahoo does this after I deleted some important e-mails.. bums :mad:


And there new "streamlined" interface seems to be slower and a lot more problem ridden for me. It stopped responding twice while I was just checking if I had mail :mad: :mad:

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

i was thinking about wanting gmail because of the extra storage space. then I got up this morning and yahoo had upped the storage space so I was happy. but then, it kept giving me lots of trouble....

moral of the story, can I have an invite from someone?

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

Eventually, I hope Google's mail service can be configured for desktop mail programs. I like my Mail application, I use it to retrieve my mail from my primary Comcast account. It's much cleaner and neater than the messy online place. But GMail's mail center so far, is very neat also.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

I believe you get three invites to start and then additional invites as time goes on. It took a few days for my three invites to show up.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

Yeah, I've had my account sense yesterday, and no invites as of yet.

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

yes, and when you do.......

Re: Gmail Invitations
 

I have 5 new Gmail invitations if anyone still wants one. Just post here with your current e-mail address and I will send you one.
