Having your own domain offers a neat way of tracking where spam comes from. For example, if you see the email I use here, I will know any spam that comes from someone getting my address from here. Of course,/. isn't the best example. Say I sign up at a website, misfitriprapper.com. I will use misfitriprapper.com as the username before the @4la... I use this method EVERYWHERE. I just sent an email last night to Epson support. My email address? epson.com@4la... We've all learned years ago to not trust anybody, so, I don't even trust the big companies like Epson.
How saddeningly true - the more patents there are, the less innovation, the less motivation for innovation.
Ironically, I was going to use Microsoft as an example, before I realized it.
So, basically what you're saying is I'm getting my transmission fixed. But you know what? My car's still a piece of crap.
Sure, they're always working on the search engine, but I doubt they're doing much of anything with the actual GMail service itself. Which is what we're concerned with here.
Exactly. I have 50 invites too. A million other people have 50 invites. Why bother with the invites any more when everyone who's heard of GMail now has access to a friend with 49 invites left? Just open it up already.
I can understand why they still call it beta... because it still sucks. I just use it for porn newsletters.
Yeah, woopity freakin doo, so they put a little box over there. That is NOTHING. That is no improvement to the service itself.
Just last week I changed a graphic on my site from gold to silver, reflecting it's new status as a 1 year old site. So what? Does it make searches come up any faster, look any nicer? No.
GMail is still "beta" yet I haven't seen in forever any new changes. Also, I don't think they would have released so many invites if they were still seriously working on it. You don't let that huge of a population use something that is truly still "beta."
of my own real quick... infinite loop, includes showing maximum deviance from 1 and 0 being the same on the plus side (more 1's) and the neg side (more 0's). Enjoy!
Just for that, I'm going to rip some random pictures and put them on my blog, and hope some lawyers call me. Of course, I'll be getting permission from the owners of the pictures.

Shouldn't be giving your banker that information anyway, even if you're 500% sure it's really him, in the flesh.
Well at least you were kind enough to use that email address. 22 minutes and I'm still waiting for some mail, though. :-( so lonely...

Maybe that's why the java applet dies after only a little bit...
