gmail? Options

[ohnine]

well i want to know what gmail has? and if theres anyone here who has it? id really like to know how to invite people also.. can someone help me?

[MasterNe0]

Gmail is google email. It currently in beta verison and very very hard to get. I don't know how to get it but it nothing really special. Almost like yahoo mail. If you have a account. u can only invite a limited number of people to sign up for g-mail.

[inquisitive_]

I want to get Gmail too but they are still testing it so I don't know when it will be available for everyone.

[ohnine]

o thanks, cuz i used to have invites i used em up..

[Fe_LL]

I have Gmail and I like it. I got my invite the easy way; livejournal's gmail invite community... :P

what do u mean "nothing really special"? i have a gmail account (sarutobi@gmail.com), and lemme tell u, it kicks ass. No need in deletin your e-mails cause you have 1G of space....yea, thats 500x (literally) than hotmail has to offer and 10x more than yahoo...i'm glad. also, you can "search" through your mail like google in case you do manage to fill up 1000MB...that way, it'll be easier to find. you can also report spam, use labels, give message special statuses (starred), composing is easier n better, use shortcut keys, snow snippets of messages like google web search, and bunch more. i think that's REALLY special.

who needs 1gb anyway?
btw, i heard they read your email if you use it.

nothing wrong with 1G is there? bigger the better, i say.

also...this was in their privacy policy:

Email contents and usage. The contents of your Gmail account also are stored and maintained on Google servers in order to provide the service. Google's computers process the information in your email for various purposes, including formatting and displaying the information to you, delivering targeted related information (such as advertisements and related links), preventing unsolicited bulk email (spam), backing up your email, and other purposes relating to offering you Gmail. Because we keep back-up copies of data for the purposes of recovery from errors or system failure, residual copies of email may remain on our systems for some time, even after you have deleted messages from your mailbox or after the termination of your account. Google employees do not access the content of any mailboxes unless you specifically request them to do so (for example, if you are having technical difficulties accessing your account) or if required by law, to maintain our system, or to protect Google or the public.

so there.

[highly_evolved]

[silver-rain]

eh, i have an account, but i barely use it. but it is pretty good.

[ohnine]

well i really just need is an account myself..

[Levy2k6]

who seriously needs that much space for mail.... i barely get 3 emails a day.

[MeanBastard]

Bahaha. *dangles a invite above everyoens head*

[LilPiggi3]

yahoo gave me 100 mb...and i thought that was the biggest amount any email place can give you...i guess google mail is better. But like, Levy2k6 said, who needs so much space anyways? ...i've only used up 1% of my 100 mb

[Stupid_Fat_Boy]

whats a gmail?

[ohnine]

read the other posts above you man..

[xquizit]

It's great especially because of all the space you have. Thanks Henry (mystical) for inviting me.

[queen]

my family shares a gmail account. all that space is too much for myself. so currently there's 5 people using it ;P

[ohnine]

woah 5 people? i need one just for myself.. my mom has one and its already 3/4 full because of work my dad got one from a friend he doesnt use it much.. and im still gmail-less..

[acidbreeze]

2 gig, search messages feature, labels instead of folders, organized conversations (open the first email you sent to someone, and you can read wat they responded with, what you said back, etc as well), being internet-rad, umm
i got my gmail in june, and never got any invites.

i've used 4%, joining up for newsletters, directing xanga subs, lj comments, and other stuff to that account.

[Rachel]

i wish i could have gotten an invite

ive looked in the livejournal communities and people are charging MONEY for a freakin email account

crazzzy greedy people =)

ohwell. if your a kind soul you would invite me

[Levy2k6]

i still think that's alot of space for just mail... i probaly would be good w/ 1 mb... but that's just me.

[ohnine]

also ilike to be the one having it cuz not many people have it :)

[angel-roh]

g-mail...u email ppls with that email address, but wat are u guys talking about.....inviting ppls, huh?

[jk9286]

Ooh! I want a Gmail account I hope they release it to the public soon~!

[sunni_banana]

i have gmail! it's good i guess..cuz it really sorts out the spammy crap..and it has like a 1000mb capacity so you'll never hafta delete anything...yeah i got it cuz a friend of my brother works at google...i never even knew it could be a job!

[ohnine]

do you have any invites?

[acidbreeze]

i have one invite.

how to invite people - after a while (2 months for me and i got ONE measly invite, you must prove yourself worthy) there will be a red link on the left side saying "Invite a friend to Gmail!"

in fact, here's a screenshot.

[me_myself_andi20...]

i want gmail i want gmail i want g maill!!! actually if i want that much space... i just hafta take an e-mail from my dads company... hes da boss so yeah how do i use up so much space?

[silver-rain]

haha, wow you have a lot of mail. bleh, i have gmail and i don't realyl use it. but i have a bunch of invites, but they're going to my friends and family only. sorry

[hybrid]

Yeah.. I just got mine a few days ago.

[acidbreeze]

sell your soul to gmail (my address bar)
yeah, almost none of the email is personal though, few and far between..

[imm]

Gmail...gmail...gmail...Geek Mail?? I want Gmail. It sounds quite interesting. And useful.

[SNAP_Tornado]

how do u a gmail account anyways?

[juliar]

I have Gmail.
B*tch.

Well, basically you can view all of it in conversation mode, collapse and contract the conversations. You can do a search in your mail, and of course, the practically unlimited space, and the quickness of google.

[lemmonii]

yeah i have gmail too... its cool
i started using it late june cuz my SAT instructor had a cousin who worked for google and so my instructor got invited and i asked him for an invite... pretty cool. and all that "i've been using it for hecka long and got only 1 invite"??? i've been using if for month and a half and already had six come my way.

its not as fruffy (sp) as yahoo or hotmail... no calender, the contact list format sux. but the organization of your mail that they allow you is better than than the traditional email accounts. for people like me who are members of filesharing sites... such as pianofiles.com... its hella more usefull than yahoo cuz of the lg attachments and stuff like that. and you get to keep everything. i used to be one of those people on yahoo who deleted everything. if it wasnt important like account info then it would go into the trash. but now i just leave it there. no worries

they're spam protection is pretty top notch too... its not always good but hey atleast its there

[fallenang3l211]

i have gmail! its so awesome..i'm still waitng for them to send me the email to invite people

[Levy2k6]

i want a gmail account.... oh well. i dont really care if i get one or not, i can just ask my friend 2 make me one under any domain name i want... yeah.

[swtpumkinpie]

i have five more to give away. send me a message with an email so i can send the invites out.

[cornflakes]

Anyone who wants one PM me, I'll try my best to hand them out.

[me_myself_andi20...]

G MAIL EFFIN ROCKS! lol... i still have 4 invites!

[*corizzle20*]

can someone please give me an invite? thanks. my name is corey hsu, and my current email adress is

xraznxquick3rx@yahoo.com

thank u all so much!

[F1R3B4T]

gmail is tha best!
1 gigabyte of space. u couldn't possibly ask for more.

[lpmatt618]

I use it, its actually very nice. Btw, the number of invites you get depends on how many emails you send. If you send a lot in the first few weeks you'll get stacked with invites.

[captured_serenit...]

i want one... those look coolies...

[abercrombiekid]

want invites? pm with your email and name, ill get back to u

[WhiteLotus*]

Hmm...I've only heard about it recently. I hope it's free and avliable to the public.

[*corizzle20*]

[magnificentmike]

[Angelos]

[mechwarrior1989]

I got a Gmail account by trading someone a $30 off $150 staples coupon. Best decission I ever made, especially since I didn't need the coupon, but I still use my Yahoo account as my primary account. I dunno, I guess having the GMail account is so I can walk around and be like, "I've got GMail, and you don't."

[*thesweetescape*]

Thanks to Troy, I recently got a gmail account also. I really haven't used it that much yet but I intend on doing so. I always run out of space on my hotmail e-mail address.

[sweetxsimplicity]

Gmail gives you a lot of space, but a lot of screennames are taken up that aren't even taken up on Yahoo. =/
If you want an invite, PM me with your full name and email address and I'll send you one. ;D

[venturesome69]

I want one but hey what can I do?

[*kryogenix*]

Hi, just use private messages instead of public solicitation.

Closed.
