Gmail is like a sore dick; you can't beat it!
Seriously though, this April Fools thing was funny for a while, but it has to stop. I depend on this site for serious news. But today its all joke articles like this one. Come on now, two Gigabytes? For email? Very funny guys.

How to get Gulped? You can pick up your own supply of this "limited release" product simply by turning in a used Gulp Cap at your local grocery store. How to get a Gulp Cap? Well, if you know someone who's already been "gulped," they can give you one. And if you don't know anyone who can give you one, don't worry - that just means you aren't cool. But very, very (very!) soon, you will be. I guess I'm not cool. =(

As nerds around the world move their coveted porn off their hard drives to Gmail storage, Google will soon be able to post the following on their login page for GMail and actually mean it... "All your pr0n are belong to us..."
Maybe is somekind of variation of Moore's law.
On April Fools' Day your GMail storage will double and the funniness of Slashdot jokes will be halved.
Oh? I thought it was all the email I was receiving on how to make things larger.
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
If you haven't done it yet, log out of your account and watch the MB counter on the front page. It's mesmerizing... like watching a disk defrag or something...

AT&T worldnet just raised their email storage limit from 10Mb to 25Mb. Woohoo.

Well, if their plan is to give Infinity + 1 bytes... and if their definition of Infinity is the same as the one given by the Google calculator... then we will end up with an account of... 1 byte! :(
Just look at:

On most sites, there's legitimate news with an april fools joke snuck in.
Here, there's april fools jokes with a legitimate news item snuck in.

Yahoo says will keep competitive to Google, and is now offering Infinity plus Infinity megabytes.
Google replies, offering Infinity squared megabytes.
I love the doodled graph on the main page. I didn't notice at first, but the shiny effect around the Infinity+1 and the coffee stain really add realism to it. It's these little touches that make Google what it is today.

They actually have all the technical details to a Calendar worked out. The only issue holding up a release at this stage is the name.
Galendar doesn't sound quite snazzy enough.
Oh well. Then again I was the guy that suggested they use Go Ogle for their image search so maybe Go Date would work better for the calendar.
Seriously, I do agree with you. I just implemented a PHP calendar on my website for the family to use and a Google calendar would probably kick my attempt to pieces.
