This came as quite a suprise to me that it was not an April Fool's Joke. For those still in the dark, Gmail is Google's Hotmail/Yahoo!Mail Busting Email Service. This brand spankin new free Email provides the user with a full gigabyte of free email storage, eliminating all need to delete old emails. There are other features that will be included, like a search function for your email, and simple text ads instead of popup ads.

This Email service is so innovative that at first I did not believe it. A full gigabyte for every user is going to take up a lot of space- Their servers will have to be huge to take on the inevitable millions of users that will be signing up for this email. We're talking thousands of terabytes here. Also, there will be problems with people using their google account as storage space for files, or pirating.
All in all though, I am quite excited that this is no april fool's gag and that it will really come into fruition. Your thoughts?
