Gmail

Posted on Friday, September 17, 2004 in Uncategorized

Thanks to my friend Adam I now have a Gmail account1. As soon as get some invites, I’ll start dishing them out – in the meantime…

Gmail invites to spare?

Found the Gmail invite spooler via Forever Geek. If you’ve got invites to spare, send ‘em to it. If you want one, give them your address.

Unfortunately I can’t vouch for how well it works as I registered for mine shortly before my domain disappeared and hence my email was MIA as well. Then by co-incidence Adam sent me one. Good man.

First impressions

Good. Very good in fact.

Nice clean interface. I like the way conversations are threaded (although it confused me at first). The ads aren’t obtrusive/annoying and are relevant to your email. Not had chance to play with search due to having very few emails in there, but all-in-all a nice webmail system.

If you’re using Gmail with Firefox2 you owe it to yourself to use the Gmail Notifier extension.


1 See if you can figure out my address… :)

2 1.0 PR1 is out and is good. Try it
