GMail Invite Inquiries

June 7, 2004 15:44 by matthaw

Err - I have GMail, so what. I hardly use it because I don't need 3 dozen email addresses floating around. So, this means I *don't* get to see the "invite someone" link at all.

Why did I post this? Well, my original post "Got GMail?" continuously receives inquiries about getting invited. Currently, there stands about 30 people wanting an invite. Can I invite them? No. Why? Because I don't use it enough. It's just frustrating, and I darn well can't turn off comments for just one of my posts. I get these inquiries daily, and its just driving me nutz.

So, if you're thinking about asking me for an invite, think otherwise. *If* I do get around to seeing that "invite someone" link, you've got a long list ahead of you, so why bother asking me.

I have two posts that draw comments like that as well (one of which being a post on Longhorn product activation - weblogs.asp.net/.../35131.aspx">weblogs.asp.net/.../35131.aspx ).  The good thing is that many of the comments are so badly written they give me a good laugh.

Can you invite me to gmail?



No seriously, can you? Tong



The power, and evilness, of blogs in search results is that people looking for gmail or orkut find our blogs and want invited. I had them same issue for a while with an orkut post I made. They've sorta died off now though. Have fun with it as most people on the net can be rather entertaining.

On a similar front, apparently bidders were repeatedy asking eBay sellers of Gmail invites whether or not this or that Gmail username was still available before they wanted to commit money.



Funny enough, this agrivation prompted yet another strain of Gmail craziness ... paytoknow.com ... pay to find out what's still available. Go figure.

If I buy a gmail invite on ebay for about $5, does that allow me to invite others as well? Also, does anyone know if gmail allows the pop mail forwarding?

That is just so funny. The internet creates more bandwagon jumpers than I have ever seen. Between that and ebay there is quite a bit of profiting going on around these "free" accounts.

Just to say if anyone _REALLY_ wants a Gmail invite there's now a site that buys and sells them for a dollar. I just got mine!
