I aquired Gmail a while back, invited from another NSer. I have five invites left, and no one I know would have any real reason to get Gmail. Therefore, I'm opening up a little contest.

What's Gmail and why the hell should I care, you ask?
Gmail is Google's e-mail service. It is free, and currently in BETA, although I haven't noticed a single flaw in it as of yet. But what's the real draw to Gmail is that it can store up to 1000 MB of e-mail and attachments.

That's right, you get to have a gig of e-mail storage, for free.

But there's a catch! You have to be invited to join Gmail.

So what's the contest already?
Just tell me why you need Gmail, or what you'd do for it. Be creative, please.

Invites left: 5

No

I would give you a Klondike bar :D

I'll also donate to you a breeding pair of Lunatic Goofball's finest scrotum seeking attack weasels.

I'll streak a public event or location of your choice.

A BUMP here.

Free email=good!
I'll have to think about a post to apply for it....

Just give it to me. i am not writing you anything.

I need Gmail because its the best mailing service out there. I want that uber amount of space so I can store file that need to be transferred to other computers without having to waste a cd.

If you send me a gmail account I will give atleast 1 invite away to charity and promise not to sell any invites on ebay.

Jesus, people can do that?

*ditches the contest*
(j/k)

Can I have one so I can send big emails.

How is google makin gmoney if one person bought G-mail and invited people in a chain letter like fasion? But I dont exactly feel for huge corporations so....

I would use it to make myself feel special. I just came out of drug rehab and im getting back on my feet. I currently work two minimum wage jobs just to support myself through nursing school. I hope to start my own buisness one day and 1 gig of memory will really help me on my way. I will understand if you don't give it to me, as I can never catch a break in life, but if something nice happened for me that would really cheer me up.

I want a Gmail account so I can,

a) gloat about my über-space to my geeky friends,
b) stick it in the faces of those google haters out there, and,
c) so I can give a few of my nerdier friends accounts right when they're starting to gang up on me for being a gloating little b*stard. I mean, it's only fair. Oh...and I promise to use the über-space for good and not for evil.

Actually, you know, that Quadrocycle fellow probably deserves it alot more than I do, being a middle-class teenager and all. Good luck Quadrocycle.

I am thinking of 6 numbers between 1-7. Guess one and you get an invite. Then laugh at the one person who guessed wrong.

5!

5!
Congrats, you are the owner of a shiny new GMail account! Please wire me your email so I can send you the invite.

Ah, what the hey, I'm thinkin' three.

Sweet!:D

There are many reasons I would like G-Mail. One, it is a revolutionary new email server and system. It revolutionizes the way we think of free email. It is also a great way to show how much you love computers (such as me). Another great thing is that it makes you realize how powerful google is. I always use google. All other search engines are obsolete. It would be greatly appreciated to have this invite.

as far as a number, 6.

i need gmail so i can hide p0rn from my girlfriend.

hey, at least i'm being honest.

Well, aside from the obvious that my boyfriend is being stingy and won't find out if he has any, I need a G-Mail invite because I'm a computer nerd and this will do lots for my reputation at school. The other nerds will flock to me and drool over my account because I have one and they don't because they are losers who won't get one!

I've got some invites too, and nothing to do with them. If you want to give them away too, Resi?

Hey why dont you just give one to me Unfree people? I'll be forever greatful......

I would very much like to have a gmail account, as none of my friends have any invites to spare, and as must be evident from my name, I am both a nerd and hate the hotmail service which I am forced to rely on while running microsofts shoddy operating systems just so that my stupid hardware will work because its so damn hard to find linux drivers. anyway, gmail would be great, and I would be very grateful to anyone who would spare me an invite.

Shrek of Blame Microsoft

Resi appears to be offline, would you mind dealing out a few of those invites yourself Unfree?

Some people sold them on ebay, but that is now prohibited.

I want one, but I am waiting till it comes out.

Speaking of google, apparently there is a puzzle which will get you to a recruitment site. I think the puzzle is find the prime number which is of 10,000 consecuative digits of Pi. Anyone up for it.

Of course I could be mistaken.

I have computers nerds at school to annoy... can I have one so I can make them jealous?! :D

im leaving for the military in november and i might not be able to get my own computer for a while. my brother tells me that for the first 2 years he was stuck to base and library computers.

good luck!

I want gmail because I'm an uber geek and I have all these subscriptions to Star Wars, and Interscope and such. Each of their mail is about 30k big, and I've been a member for a long time now and my mailbox is getting full and I refuse to delete them!

Plus, who wouldn't want a GB of free space just for the hell of it? No worries about deleting or getting full mailboxes from all those dumb porno sites.

I signed up for "Updates for Gmail" but that didn't really give me gmail. So that sucks.

I'm not really willing to do anything for you, because for one thing it's just an email account, not like I'm going to jump off a bridge to test gravity. So it's all up to you.

I need gmail because i hate having to delete old email cause alot of that stuff i get is really valuble to me things like: passwords, confirmations, online game bills (very important!!) and stuff like that.

i also would like it because i really need a good email host and yahoo isnt cutting it for me!!

Ok, TG me and I will send you a link!

Debian-Linux , I forgot about the gmail account I have, but it only has 1 invite left. So I'm not going to tg for mine :)

*invite wired*

If it does not work, tg me. I'll e-mail it to you then.

(With the spam prevention thing, it makes you preak up long URL's. The invite has about 4 breaks)

I'll streak a public event or location of your choice.

You are an oldie to NS. If you do not have one and you would like one, telegram me. If anyone else telegrams me, I will not give you one.

Thanks again! ^_^ I'm so hyper now!!

I need the Gmail for a project I do every year, called History Day. Last year, it got me to the Californian State Finals. However, I had a bit of a problem concerning space. A gig would do me wonders.

You could give me an invite because i am a very nice person who would invite all of my friends and so make them very happy. I don't need an account for myself but i am such a caring person i feel the need to please my friends.

I would like a G-mail account so I could blag a name of a big company, to foil them using the name. Either that or be called hotmail@gmail.com.

Thats a good idea....
