simpsonsFAN I am the same leggom. I hardly ever go on that site, I have just logged in and the last time I was there was 02/06/04 at 2048.

Anyway not to get off topic the most I have had is 6 and I said I think the maximum is 6 but I was wrong.

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
If anyone is still interested I have just got 6 invites. PM me with your details. Thanks

hi all...

came across this earlier...and thought it may be of use to someone here with a gmail account....

"richard jones's perl script creates what he calls the Gmail File System, which can mount the one gig as a virtual volume right on your linux desktop"

extract taken from here..
http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/pulpit20040909.html


info on Gmail File System including download and instal instructions here...
http://richard.jones.name/google-hac...ilesystem.html

looks to be compatible with linux only at the moment....so not of any use the the windows users for the foreseeable future...

hope thats of interest to someone......

Well I've STILL got 4 and the fact that no one wants them leads me to suspect I just have no friends. :D

Heh. I think I may have had these six for a while, but I didn't notice initially as they now appear in a different place to the last 6.

Seems like it.Now in a paper laden environment we could just make paper aeroplanes with the spares.However in a paperless environment what does one do with the dratted things? :D

Florence 18-09-2004 19:19

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
go to gmails forums and ask in there if anyone wants one.

I would have thought that everyone who wants one must have one by now.I can't get rid of them anywhere else I try because as soon as I say I have them everyone else starts offering more of them.I think that we have reached saturation level. :D

dilli-theclaw 18-09-2004 20:46

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
The folks at gmail must think we have a HELL of a lot of friends :)

I've just got another 6 btw - if you want 'em you know what to do :)

Electrolyte01 18-09-2004 20:46

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Still got 3 invites, giving them to any one now.

Maggy 18-09-2004 20:55

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I have been informed that at the beginning they were being SOLD on ebay.Guess the bottom's dropped out of the market now. ;)

Tezcatlipoca 18-09-2004 21:47

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Just got rid of one. Still have 5 more...

Florence 18-09-2004 21:56

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Just used 2 now on 4 invites

dilli-theclaw 18-09-2004 21:59

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I got down to 1 invite - then this morning I found I had 6 again :)

LostintheNW 18-09-2004 22:01

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Hello

Just wondering if there is any chance I could have a gmail invite?

Thanks in advance if anyone can get me one :)

I can't believe people actually paid for them :rofl:

Florence 18-09-2004 22:58

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Yes some did pay at the beginning but it wasn't gmail that was selling them but some of the first people that got invites.

Infact most of those I have invited have come from one person who originally paid for his.. But we didn't pay him anything and he didn't sell any

Richard M 18-09-2004 23:14

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I have 12 invites going.
If you want one, PM me with your full name and a working email address.

Kliro 19-09-2004 01:12

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I have a few spare, if theres anyone without an invite left, just PM me.

Matthew 19-09-2004 08:02

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Again I have some more if any one wants one. Just PM me.

I currently have 6 invites if anyone wants one.

I too have 6 invites if anyone wants one.

zoombini 22-09-2004 14:03

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Invites all around.
I think they have upped the ante a bit & are enlarging the user base.

Problem is no-one I ask wants one, they all have them from other online co's already.

Maggy 22-09-2004 14:15

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
So we go from everyone pleading for one to no one wanting them.


Never mind I think I'll hang onto mine in case Yahoo do start changing the way the free groups have bandwith and storage.

I suspect that a free1000MB inbox will come in handy if we get less space for our clubs.OH the irony if I have to use Google to store my Yahoo clubs message archives.


Incog. :)

Chris 22-09-2004 14:24

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Yep, I have spares sitting around. Still, someone has written a routine that allows Linux users to mount their Gmail account as 1GB of storage space, I'm hoping that a Mac OSX port of that might appear, in which case I shall award myself another half-dozen Gmail accounts and therefore, effectively, 6GB of web-based hard disk space. :D

Electrolyte01 24-09-2004 17:58

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I got 6 invites now.

I now have three left...

jon6726 09-10-2004 21:22

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
Is it really worth getting a Gmail account?

I've been looking for one for months and months. I've visited all sorts of 'get them here for free' sites and online discussion forums, and time after time I've been snubbed and denied.

So I ask, is it actually worth the fuss I'm making?

If it is, if anyone has a spare invite for a poor Gmail-less person in need, please feel free...

Shaun 09-10-2004 21:24

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
PM my your email addy and I'll let you have one :)

In fact I've got three so two others are up for grabs :)

Nope - it's just another e-mail account. The "must have" is nothing more than a load of hype. I'm surviving quite happily without one, or the craving for one. :D

Florence 10-10-2004 00:04

Re: [Merged] Get your GMail invites here!
 
I have one and if you have an NTL email its a must to have a gmail one and divert your ntl spam to it they sort it for you hold it for 30 days then delete it without you doing anything.

Its there if you need to check if any has been wrongly put in the spam folder..

I also have 2 invites anyone who pms me there details can have them

simpsonsFAN 10-10-2004 18:14

I still have 20 gmail invites, i will give them to anyone who PM's me for one, but no one seams to want them anymore!.

I found that when I went to send Gaz one, I ended up having to use safe mode to get at them, I think it must be somthing to do with my popup blockers or somthing :(

Strage though as the rest og Gmail works!

I've got half a dozen invites, but my policy thus far has been for established members only. You can buy them off ebay if you're as desperate as you say.

I am offering six, quality, top-of-the-range G-Mail invites to the first six people who can PM me the correct answer to this question:

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

Its not like any established members are crying out for them is it?

True, there don't really to be be any existing established members asking for invites anymore.


But, I'm not going to waste any invites on anyone who, for example, registers here & then posts the same message 9 times, in multiple threads, all asking for an invite.
