Urk...

Gmail has suddenly given me 50 invitations.

It must be ready to go out of beta...

just about everyone has 50 invites!

Yup...

but as we all know the same 50 friends, half of which have gmail accounts anyway... :D

Half of them? More like 90% of them!

After a succession of about 10 requests for a password reminder, which came to naught, I have completely given up on G Mail.

Time to move on...

If its no longer going to be exclusive ;@)

Odd. Mine came through almost instantly. You were using the right email address weren't you?

/me nods agreement that the 'beta' is over.

However, maybe they think that the viral marketing method via 'friends' will work better than having a free-for-all? I've no idea what to do with the 150 invites I now have though ...

I persevered further - instead I tried every likely password and username and got in. And sent an e-mail to my work address reminding me of the details.

The 'printable version' of messages is still completely fucked (technical term) in Safari though.

Surely by now there must be more GMail invites than people living on the planet...

I like it, but I can't access it from work.

ditto. (only I use college as my reason)
*wonders how many invites she has now, as she found no takers for the 6 free ones anyway*

I only have 4. You must have signed up much earlier than me...

Hmmm - Love the icon. Paul Darrow (his stage name) lives in the same village as I do. I had a huge crush on him when he was playing that character...

Wow! Not only was Avon one of the coolest characters ever to grace the screen, Paul Darrow has one of the best voices too.

And now, by being vomited on by David Walliams in Litte Britain, he is reaching a whole new demographic...

Hmmm. Maybe I should watch some Little Britain...

You might find this interesting...
