By now you probably know the key ways in which Gmail differs from traditional webmail services. Searching instead of filing. A free gigabyte of storage. Messages displayed in context as conversations.

So what else is new?

Gmail has many other special features that will become apparent as you use your account. To help you get started, we encourage you to visit our Help Center, there you can browse frequently asked questions, read our Getting Started guide, or contact the Gmail User Support Team. You'll also find information in the Help Center on such topics as:

* Importing your contacts from Yahoo! Mail, Outlook, and others to Gmail
* Using address auto-complete
* Setting up filters for incoming mail
* Using advanced search options

You may also have noticed some text ads or related links to the right of this message. They're placed there in the same way that ads are placed alongside Google search results and, through our AdSense program, on content pages across the web. The matching of ads to content in your Gmail messages is performed entirely by computers; never by people. Because the ads and links are matched to information that is of interest to you, we hope you'll find them relevant and useful.

We're working hard during our limited test to improve Gmail and make it the best webmail service around. Thanks for taking the plunge with us. We hope you'll enjoy Google's approach to email.

I have 6 invites, post your email here and I'll send one later.

heyal256 · 08-31-2004, 06:03 PM

I guess i'll join in the offering of gmail invites.... first 3 pm's (with name and e-mail address) will get invites. Besides, I got my gmail account from this thread so I'm giving back.

edit: 2 left.....

j0hnb · 09-01-2004, 04:57 AM

i've got 3 gmail invites if anyone wants one send me an email at jcbanks@gmail.com

AngelicVampire · 09-01-2004, 08:56 AM

Ok how do I send invites out? Gmail says that I can invite 5 people... but it does not tell me how... clicking the Invite 5 friends does not work... please tell me how to make this work!

Hi,

If you are using a local proxy (e.g., proxomitron) with your brwoser, set the browser's proxy configuration to bypass gmail.google.com.

I just experienced this problem this morning. The invite system wants to open a new window and it's being blocked.

@ bigoldalphamale

yeah. There's a thread on fark.com where they're really moving.

I tried to give some back here yesterday and got no response.

amonkie · 09-01-2004, 04:02 PM

Hmm, did anyone else still have invites to give and find that they are no longer there? I went to check my mail today and I had three left to give away that seem to have suddenly disappeared.... Google is sure keeping the limit of accounts down.

alkaloid · 09-01-2004, 06:57 PM

Thank you thank you for sending me the invite J0hnB!
Thank you thank you for offering one to me bgivnin!
I love you guys.
I love Tilted Forum.

AngelicVampire · 09-02-2004, 08:52 AM

Still no luck, they are picked out in red and do not appear to be a link... however it still says that I can invite...

I'm guessing you have a popup blocker? 'Cause the invite screen is a popup so that might be causing a problem.

glytch · 09-02-2004, 04:53 PM

Just noticed that I have 6 invites to give out, let the PMs begin!

you might be waiting a while for those pm's..... there seem to be quite a few of us trying to give out invites, but few takers....

In 2 days, I've given out 1 invite..

I guess tfp doesn't really need invites or something.

yakimushi · 09-02-2004, 05:48 PM

I've got a few. yakimushi (at) gmail.com if you want one.

omid · 09-02-2004, 06:58 PM

yeah same here i have 6... send me an email... oafarivar (at) gmail.com

amonkie · 09-03-2004, 09:06 AM

Back in the game with four more invites.... Shoot me a PM, include an email address for me to send it to, and voila!

tropple · 09-03-2004, 11:55 AM

There's been a thread over on fark for gmail invites. No one here wanted mine, either.

gulfan · 09-04-2004, 12:35 PM

I'll take one. ksnaden@shaw.ca please!

Krycheck · 09-04-2004, 10:13 PM

Totally forgot about this thread. I gave out 4 on #tfp the other day.

Oh and yeah, check out the fark gmail thread for some http://forums.fark.com/cgi/fark/comm...IDLink=1109924

robbdn · 09-05-2004, 12:03 AM

send email to eternalgamer at gmail.com i will give out invites until I'm out

Glava · 09-05-2004, 07:20 AM

Would anyone like to get a Gmail invite in exchange for an Orkut invite?

ubertuber · 09-05-2004, 08:04 AM

I've got two more - PM me here if you'd like one. First come, first served...

EDIT: Actually I have 6 now.

trickyy · 09-05-2004, 08:59 AM

Glava · 09-06-2004, 01:23 PM

I think there are more offers than requests. Gmail is no longer elite.

kel · 09-07-2004, 08:24 AM

Hi, I'd love to have a gmail invite. It sounds pretty sweet and I've been looking for an alternative to fastmail.fm.

aarchaon · 09-20-2004, 06:17 AM

A Gmail account would make my entire week. If anyone has any invites left, I would be more than happy to take one off your hands!
