I have a gmail account!

Published by Martin at 9:22 am under General

I have become one of the chosen few! Okay, maybe it’s not really that big of deal, but it is one of those simple, geeky pleasures in life. You can send to me at mckeay_at_gmail.com.

Now comes my dilema. Do I keep forwarding my email to my Yahoo account, or do I switch to Gmail wholesale? I think I’ll give Gmail a week or two before I do anything drastic.

Anyone else have any experience with Gmail they’d like to relate?

    How on earth do you become one of the chosen few? Is it a random amount of people who registered their interest or something? I want one!!!

    I got an invite from a co-worker. I didn’t have to give up my first-born or anything (though some days I’d be willing to offer my first and second-born!) I’m pretty impressed by the interface so far, but I’m waiting a little longer before I move everything over to G-mail. I’ll let you know.

    Sound. I guess I’ll have to increase my circle of friends!

    Every so often, they allow current users to send out a few invites. I think they’re having problems right now, because people are trying to auction off invites. I don’t have any invites to give out myself, haven’t been given any by Google. Mine will probably be given to people I already know, so you’ll have to look elsewhere for an invite for some time. There’s no clue I’ve read as to when the beta will end.
