Re: Google Mail!
I just registered at www.gmailswap.com where there are lots of people begging for gmail accounts. I am now one of them. Actually, I offered to trade whatever personal advice/help I could offer in order to get somebody the desktop theme that they want. Kind of a spinoff of that thread in the Screenshots forum... We'll see if it works: http://www.gmailswap.com/list/read.p...=57054&t=57054

Re: Google Mail!
Yeah, I tried an app called ObjectDock, but I didn't like it... For that matter, I didn't care for the mac look at all. Too bright and shiny... Originally Posted by Vinzalf

Re: Google Mail!
Diddnt Yahoo used to be powered by Google? Now It says HP, but I could have sworn I saw 'Powered by Google' down at the bottom of their pages a while back...
Back to that site, Some of those are really neat ideas... I thought for a while, what college student who has no real skills in anything would be able to do for a swap... I considered something like Naming a Star for them, but After a little research on the subject I realized I'd be as much of a scam as the company who'd have taken my money =/
blood donations already done ... bah!RAWGRLRLRLRRLGLRL!!!

Re: Google Mail!
Yep. Yahoo started out as a simple web directory, then it started contracting with search sites. It was with AltaVista for quite a while, then had a nice long relationship with Google. Their contract ended earlier this year, I believe. I think Yahoo is using their own search engine now. Microsoft is working on a search engine right now, as well. Google is really scaring the big boys. They're going to go public pretty soon, too. Interesting times ahead for Google. Originally Posted by Vinzalf

Re: Google Mail!
I've had a Yahoo account since their beginning. A while back I upgraded the email account to receive 25 Mb, POP access and email aliases (used for spam). Just today I received a notice that I'm being upgraded (for FREE) to 2 GB space and no graphical ads. Originally Posted by CingularDuality
This was a nice surprise. Granted, I never even used the 25 Mb space I had, but it was still nice to see. I primarily use the POP access to download my email using outlook. The gmail looks nice, but not sure I would ever really use it.

Re: Google Mail!
Yes, I've been given two "invites" and now have two gmail accounts: CingularDuality and DaTrueDave (I've been DaTrueDave since I first got on the internet/BBS' back in 1993). I haven't been offered any invitations to share yet, but you guys will be the first to know when I do! Originally Posted by wwwMEMORYnet
