Ok, I am happy that Yahoo has upgraded to 100 MB and all, but why did they have to make the interface so ugly? And how is the layout better?
And I am noticing that the 100 MB is actually turning out to be counterproductive. This is how:
Colleague: (Who has never heard of gmail and has been content with Yahoo so far) “Wow! Yahoo has upgraded me to 100 MB!”
Me: (With a smug look on my face) 100 MB! Bah! That’s nothing. I have 1 GB! For I have Gmail!
Colleague: Where?
Me: Want an invite?
Colleague: Gimme Gimme Gimme!
I am liberal with invites these days because there really seems to be a glut. Handing out invites like this instead of going live seems like a good marketing tactic. I wouldn’t have talked much about my gmail account if not for the invites.
Yes. The invites give Gmail an exclusive-club kind of a feel. I mean, its like seeing an ad for the newest and the most hip nightclub in town, but reading a small line at the bottom which says ‘Entry by invitation only’! 😀
I’ve applied at Gmail, but haven’t yet got an account. I would so like to have one, before all the good IDs are taken. Can you “invite” me or help me make an account? Or is there some other way I can get in. 😀
I have 6 🙁 getting 5 everyday now. please help me take them off me. drop in a mail to the email id above 🙂
Rohit, send a mail to ravikiranr @ gmail dot com
In the past three days I have issued 13 invites. I got them in bunches of 3,5,5. Am running out of people to send them out to!!
