Lance Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 I think its google email. It says its not open to the public though. Is there anyway to get into the beta testing? An Invite?
Martin Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 I think its google email. It says its not open to the public though... thanks for the reply I will watch this thread to learn more about it
Phi for All Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Anyone want to send one my way What's it worth to you? Here for more info on Gmail.
Lance Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 There are tons for less than a doller. If one person bought an account wouldn’t they be able to invite everybody from Science forums...?

Aegir Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 There are tons for less than a doller. If one person bought an account wouldn’t they be able to invite everybody from Science forums...? No, you only get X invites... from the people I know that have them the number of invites you get to give out seems totally random.
Dave Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Seems to be quite popular despite all the bad publicity it's getting in regards to privacy.
Sayonara Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 That's possibly because the sort of people who will want to use it are the sort of people who'll be aware of the vastly worse things Yahoo and Hotmail have been doing for years.
-Demosthenes- Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 I don't quite understand the invite thing on gmail.
Dave Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 That's possibly because the sort of people who will want to use it are the sort of people who'll be aware of the vastly worse things Yahoo and Hotmail have been doing for years. That, and they get a stupidly large amount of storage space.
blike Posted June 25, 2004 Author Posted June 25, 2004 I havn't tried it out. I just registered the account last night, and this morning google was hijacked (my brother must have been on the computer). I'll send you an invite if you want when I get it fixed.
Dave Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 Yeah, I'd quite like to see what it's like. I don't really mind the ad thing because if I wanted to send something sensitive, GPG comes to the rescue.
blike Posted June 25, 2004 Author Posted June 25, 2004 Argh, I don't have any invitations to give right now, but when I get some I'll send one your way.
mossoi Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Maybe I've missed the boat here (I've been away a while) if anybody has a spare invite I'd be very grateful.
Lance Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Maybe I've missed the boat here (I've been away a while) if anybody has a spare invite I'd be very grateful. If I ever get any invites I would be happy to send you one. As for the rest... ebay! I gota say I am really happy with it. I really like the way it groups "conversations" so you can see a mesage in its proper context.
