Holding out one hand with a gun in the other.

I have six gmail invites I'm more than willing to give to the first come and served visitors... well, except for the two I'm holding for [livejournal.com profile] rosenho and [livejournal.com profile] happyminion if they're interested in'em.

However, before everyone says memememememe, I highly suggest you read [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge's posting about the good, the bad and the gmail ugly. I like my gmail, but it has problems, so don't think it's going to fix the hole in the ozone for you.

Remember, nothing in life is truly free people.

ETN: Okay munchkins, no more invites, as they're being sent to the kids overseas, but Rosenho and Happyminion, they're still yours if you want.

ETN#2: [livejournal.com profile] elke_tanzer has a post about e-mail privacy, or lack thereof, and why gmail is not anymore evol than anybody else.

not sure you'd be interested in this, but at wilwheaton.net there's a site set up to donate gmail invites to military service men and women. the email they have through the military is pretty lowgrade, so it's hard to receive pictures and vid clips from home. so they're trying to get people to donate their gmail invites for a moral boost for the brave men and women serving in the military.

You beat me to it--I was going to post the same thing. I'd totally donate invites if I had an account, but in the meantime I shall just beseech people who do. :)

I tried wrapping my brain around a lot of issues related to Gmail, and the resulting post is here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/elke_tanzer/427853.html). If anyone knows more than I do about any of the topics there, please feel free to drop by and impart knowledge...

Thanks.

Remember, nothing in life is truly free people.

Amen to that.

Thank you, baby girl. I *think* Hope has secured us gmail spots. I'm still waiting on mine to arrive, so we'll see! You are so sweet to watch out for the mommies in our doteage!

Oh baby, thank you so much for holding onto one for me, I appreciate it! I actually got one when Alice was handing them out (I could have sworn I sent you e-mail- weird mail from JT Kellerman?) but thank you so, so much for thinking of me. You are the bestest baby ever!

If in the event they need to reformat your computer again, i'll populate an mp3 list of all the 30 gigs of mp3s I have. You're welcome to download some fo them. You can request what you want, i'll upload them on my webspace and you can download from there.
