Who wants a gmail?
2004-06-22, 12:51 PM #1
Well, if you do, go somewhere else. Cause I'm getting tired of hearing about it. Anyone else concur?

MeLoN, how else are the people supposed to give away the free Gmail accounts?

I think MeLoN is just upset that he doesn't have a gmail account yet.

See here's the fun part, I have "E" mail. And it's working out just fine so far. And if that doesn't cut it, I also have instant messengers. And to boot, I have a phone! It's amazing how you can get by if you don't need something.

And no, I don't have one. And I don't care if you DO.

Will you ever ever ever use 1 Gigabyte (1,073,741,824 bytes) of space? Be honest here. I'm amazed they're pulling this off. You know just how much storage space allocated will be? That has to be a pricy server.

With the prevalance of spam, you may soon need 1GB of storage just to hold your new e-mail messages every day. :P

The University of North Carolina has finally found a network server that, although missing for four years, hasn't missed a packet in all that time. Try as they might, university administrators couldn't find the server. Working with Novell Inc., IT workers tracked it down by meticulously following cable until they literally ran into a wall. The server had been mistakenly sealed behind drywall by maintenance workers.

Actually, I'd say there are more people here who are not homornal pubescent boys than those who are. But that's just my guess.

Just like you.

And SAJN, I was just pointing out the comeback, because it was pretty good. He hasn't treated me like crap either. It's just a personal thing. Now if you want someone who treats EVERYONE like crap...I can tell you jaunty tales about a young man who is almost eccentrically evil to everyone.

No one is forcing you to visit the gmail-related threads. If they annoy you, then just stay away from them.

Also, I'm pretty sure that the emails are compressed, since text isnt all that hard to compress. So I doubt that even if you filled up all of your storage space, it wouldnt take up an actual gigs worth of space on the server.

Also, I'm curious as to how their servers actually work. There must be some clever jiggerypokery going on there. Super compression or something?
