IMO there are a few other good things about it.
One, it's run by Google, who seems to be the company with the greatest understanding of the net and the forces that make it work. They're less likely to do something stupid to irritate and annoy you. Two, I've seen not one spam message in six weeks of operation. I'm using mine for commercial contact, and it's doing very well for that. |

Hmm ... spammers got a hold of my gmail addy about a week ago. I do not, however, get nearly as many spam messages as I did to my Yahoo account when that first got raided. And google's spam filter is excellent, at least this far into it.
Anyone need invites? I got six ... bidding is now open for cash/sexual favors ... |

Naw, I'll be fair - take yourself out and buy as much alcohol as possible with $10. Here in NYC I could conceivably buy 10 beers, if I make it to the Gowanus Yacht Club before 7 pm tonight. |

Sounds like a fair deal I think I'll go buy a six pack of some Blue Moon and a 40oz'er, that should be about $10. How do you send the invite to me? My email is in my profile. Thanks!

I read about a website that's matching up people with invites to people who want to be invited. Go to: http://isnoop.net/gmailomatic.php?PH...391c7ce3e3fcc3
or click here: Isnoop.net Gmail invite spooler If you have extra invites, you can send them to the spooler, if you want an invite you can sign up at the spooler. Or keep coming here. Whatever. Quote:

No, but maybe you are retarded?
I've been spending ages trying to scores one of those invites. Did it ever cross your mind that I might also have PMed Jinx as well as posted?
Ooooh...there's a thought. Let's see...am I retarded....hmmmm...difficult question. I'm graduating with a Master of Science degree this December...and I have a 4.0 GPA in my program. No...I guess I'm not retarded. Do you know what it means to be retarded? Maybe you should ask someone with a real disability. People say stuff like that all the time, but it's not a laughing matter.
