.. Very nice. A gig of storage, interesting threading feature that shows all the replies below the new message, and Google's cool search engine built in. Very sweet. Anyone else get their paws on an account during this beta stage?

I'm not sure if there is anyone here besides you who have, Kas.

I've heard of it. Yahoo just bumped up their storage by 25 times (from 4 megs to 100) to try and compete. (Hopefully Hotmail will follow...)
I wasn't aware that Gmail was offering signups already, however.

This is a good time because Kas is so up-tight you could stick a coal up his ass and in two weeks you would have a diamond.

They're not offering signups. While it's in beta, you have to be invited by someone who has an account.

And Zark, this gmail thing was really big news for awhile. Lawsuits and everything, California (naturally) was trying to get a bill passed to stop it, etc.

Stop email!

"And what exactly is wrong with the name Thumper?"
Kas: why did they want to stop it? Isn't that a bit...odd?
