Google email

if someone could spare another, I have a bud who wants one. I just got my own accts and I guess I don't have invites to give out yet.

I dunno if it will get through our spam filter, but try shooting one to him if ya don't mind?

I sent the invite. I used Section as the first name and 8 as the last. Let me know if it goes. I sent it to the email listed...

altho, the whole gmail scanning your email to target ads on the side, is pretty creepy.

I pump it through outlook so I never see the website and ads. If you already have pop3 mail with your provider (dsl/cable) and get mail in outlook (and thus into the main 'Inbox' folder), just setup a rule to forward your gmail to a folder when it has your full gmail mail address in the to or cc: lines, rename the folder Gmail or whatever you like, and it's done.

I love you justin, but not in that way. I already have a gmail account, and she's treating me well.

well that wasn't my point. my point was that the system scans your email to get the "targeted ads" which can get a bit creepy. getting the ads on the side is a secondary point.

ahh I see. I stopped using email for really private information along time ago, everyone scans email to some extent (ISP, the Gov, all the external 'free' mails, etc) , and it's fairly easy to sniff packets from neighbors on your own ISP - nothing is sacred and secret these days unless you literally tell someone face to face - or encrypt it (I suggest PGP).

Big brother is already watching - most of the time.

Thats was a good book. That is, if you were reffering to 1985.

Clearly you didn't read it.

he didn't (our spam filter caught it) but I noticed I *do* have invites now, so I sent him 1 to his non-work addy, so he's G'ed up now.. Thanks for trying!


Err, it was 1984 - yep I read it, it was just 20-30 years before it's time (imho).
