Gmail

* on the web @ 09:23

I have three gmail invites. Does anyone want one? The catch is I have to know you, ie you've either commented here before, or I have you linked, or I've commented on your blog. If I get no bites then they're going to Wil Wheaton's lovely project.

Yasmin,

I would love a gmail invite.

Thanks!
Margaret

I'd like one just to see how it works but Wil Wheaton's project is so much more worthy :-) It's nice to see that a lone webdork can make such a difference.

I know. I think it's a great cause.

I'm out of invites now, but apparently they send them in droves. If I get more I'll give you one.

I'd rather you gave it to Wil's site, to be honest. I've got more email accounts than I can be bothered to check as it is. It sounds like a neat system though - how do you like it?

So far I like it. I like how it handles emails in general, especially fowards and replies. Almost like conversations.

But it's still missing some features. For instance, I realized I can't save a message to finish later. It also has a tendency to save every email address you send email to. They can be deleted, but I would like to have the option to decide for myself.

Overall, the ads don't clutter your space, and the servers are fast. I'm sure the features will improve as it leaves Beta, and even if it doesn't, I think I enjoy better than Hotmail. Unlike the former, I still haven't been spammed, which is nice.
