Taking a break

I haven't posted anything out here in a while and that's because I've been pretty busy. I still intend on maintaining this blog. However, I need to take a break from it. Hopefully, GMail will still be in beta mode by the time I can get some more posts out here. If not, hey, have fun!!!

POP3 for GMail

This POP3 program for GMail has recently surfaced. As I discovered it last week it really had me thinking of why anyone would want to use a traditional email client to read their GMail. Once you pull your GMail off the server your right back were you started. The idea behind GMail is the features and the public space of 1GB, non of which are available once you download all your mail.

Why a POP3 program for GMail? I could see this program being extremely handy if you ever needed to convert from GMail to another service provider. You could simply download your email from GMail, and you're done. No reason to login to GMail any more.

Invites Are Gone

I invited one user from my GMail account to join GMail and now I don't have any invites left. I don't understand why it took only one. Please don't ask for a GMail account until I know that I have more. I'll post another message when I get more invites.

My First Spam Message

Finally, after publicly advertising my new GMail address on the internet I recieved my first spam message.



Notice that it placed it in my spam box. Google says, "The Gmail system will automatically empty your trash and spam every 30 days." So we'll wait and see if it is removed.

Got GMail?

So I have more GMail invites than I know what to do with at the moment. If you're interested send me and email.
