Gmail Users Get A Storage Boost [updated]
Faies writes "As reported by ZDNet: Not to be outdone by Lycos, Google just upped its 1,000 megabyte accounts to 1,000,000 MB. I just recently checked my inbox, and the number at the bottom confirms this. "You are currently using 12 MB (0%) of your 1000000 MB." That's more than my hard drive...and plus, Google clearly wants to hold the title of being best, so who knows what will happen if someone else tries to compete with a terabyte." Now how much would you pay? Update: 05/19 13:34 GMT by T : Several comments to this thread indicate that the listed mailbox size limit has returned to the previous 1GB level, so this apparent change may be nothing more than the result of a misplaced decimal point.
OMG!!! I want gmail now!!!
Lol, what is google thinking?
Maybe google will make a service that you can install an OS to their servers and run apps and stuff from their servers remotely... Dang, that'd be cool.
Can somebody say "MP3's and Movies VIA e-mail"? YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! (look all u gotta do is change the extensions... unless they come up with some sophisticated algo to check each file to see if it is an MP3 (unless this already exists - I must be new here!).
In Soviet Russia, the web-based e-mail service offers YOU!
