Hey, anyone want a google mail account?
I like gmail better than yahoo, as when you get a reply, the original message is there so I can remember what I asked.
I have 4 free invites.
PM me your email I will send you one if you are interested.

Yeah, something like 1,000.
Plus I like that little "Gmail notifier" that lets you know
when you have mail.

I looked into getting a gmail account a few weeks ago, but they told me that they were not giving out new accounts at that time.

So, I have this new account now... Problem is, I really hate changing my e-mail! I still get mail at the address i had over a year ago! Hmmm.... Do I make the big switch? Or just keep the gmail account for extra storage and stuff?

Some email accounts lets you "forward" your mail.
If so, just follow the directions for forwarding....

They always say that they are not giving out new accounts, but when you sign up for a gmail invite, it says it is a trial account.
I have four invites. If you send your email address I can send you a gmail invite. I use it just for google news alerts. It's kinda nice to have a separate place for that.

I decided to open up a second hotmail account instead. Thanks, though.
