New Gmail software

Gmail has released new software to check your gmail box threw an icon in your system tray. It works very much like Gtray and has similar options but has way fancier balloons and lets you see the email msg right there in the balloon its called gmail Notifier and it still is in beta stages along with gmail but I think its a great prog definitely replaced my gtray ;D

3.) GetMail For Hotmail
*Unrated*
GetMail is a mail forwarding program that started life because of the lack of POP3 availability for Hotmail. From these humble beginnings it has evolved into a flexible Hotmail/MSN/Pop mail directing forwarding

Clearing things up once and for all..

Well it seems the word just hasn't hit everyone yet, but just incase you're one of these people living under a rock here it goes. Gmail an email service provided by google which you can only sign up on an invite basis has NOT sent any invites out in well over a month so if you currently have a gmail account and are still waiting for your invites forget about it they are never coming all invites have stopped. hope that cleared some stuff up.

The polls are in!

Heres what you guys thought about gmail Beta testing!

(New poll is up!)

Beta testers get to keep there address!

OK here it is actual proof that beta testers get to keep there current gmail address

Quote:
Gmail is still in an early stage of development. If you set up an
account, you'll be able to keep it even after we make Gmail more
widely available and as one of the system's early testers, you will
be helping us improve the service through your feedback. We might ask
for your comments and suggestions periodically and we appreciate your
help in making Gmail even better.

Thanks,

The Gmail Team
