For those of you who are always looking for a free email account and maybe dont want to use yahoo or hotmail...I came across this today.
Anybody ever heard of it before? Seems reliable, and has some organizational features that sounds good. Well, its google... (I dont know about this mission thing - is google taking over the world? lol)
As part of Google's mission to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful, we're testing an email service called Gmail.
Gmail is a free, search-based webmail service that includes more than 2,000 megabytes (two gigabytes) of storage. The backbone of Gmail is a powerful Google search engine that quickly finds any message an account owner has ever sent or received. That means there's no need to file messages in order to find them again.
When Gmail displays an email, it automatically shows all the replies to that email as well, so users can view a message in the context of a conversation. There are no pop-ups or untargeted banner ads in Gmail, which places relevant text ads and links to related web pages adjacent to email messages.

I have invitations left if anyone wants one. I've found it to be very reliable, you can read it in Outlook Express, and so far (fingers crossed) no SPAM!

I'm moving and will be losing my email account as there is no road runner where I am going. I don't want to use hotmail and will probably end up with SBC yahoo. Anyway, I would appreciate a g mail invite if anyone has one to make the move a little easier.
I dread the whole moving thing.
Thanks
