Heya,

Thought I should mention (although it's kinda unrelated to the topic at hand) that I have tons of Gmail invites if anyone wants one. I guess they're not as hard to come by these days but yeah, if you're interested, let me know...

hmm what is different about gmail?

joeyconnick · 26th Apr 2005, 05:04 PM

Well, tons of free storage and a really nice, really quick, and pretty intuitive interface. Plus you don't use folders to store mail... instead you apply as many "labels" as you want to a message.

Also, all the messages in a conversation (the original message and any subsequent replies) are organised into essentially a thread, although they call it a conversation.

And searching is lightning-fast. Plus there's free POP access. There's more but those are the main features.

There's more here: http://gmail.google.com/gmail/help/about.html

Yup me too actually....

Well, I keep thinking I should have a look at Gmail...

Gmail is the shit. I love it and I use it everyday.

The only gripe I have with gmail is that msn doesn't automatically check your inbox for you. I know you can download programs to do that kinda stuff for you but someone at Microsoft forgot about us lazy people!

(Excuse my random raving, I do realise that msn doesn't check gmail because they want to encourage people to sign up for hotmail

)

MSN is evil... I want my ICQ! I just wish more people used it these days.

Of course, Hotmail is far more evil than MSN.

goratrix · 28th Apr 2005, 06:48 PM

ICQ... hate it. I love Jabber network... stilll there are few who use it.

Micah · 29th Apr 2005, 06:31 AM

Pff...Hotmail and msn are so not evil....I mean, what could top an email address with '@hotmale.com' (gettit? Sorry I'm still working on this whole concept of 'wit'). But on a more serious note, all my friends use msn, so if i was to swap....well i would be talking to myself.
