Journal Turn-X Alphonse's Journal: Gmail invites 20

Got like 3 spare Gmail invites, if you want one leave a message and I'll hand them out. Give a good reason as to wanting one (or leave a funny joke not taken from Bash.org) and I'll give them to my favourite replies.

If I get any more I will select the next people based on these replies and the next ones, so if you miss out this time you may get it the day after.

Gmail invites

  • Well, Ole and Lena got back from the olympics. Ole had won a gold medal at pole vaulting, and he wanted to keep his medal safe forever, so he went into town and had it bronzed.

    If that isn't worthy of gmail, nothing is. Except a joke that isn't based off a terrible racial pun. It's the best I've got right now.

    Hi. I just want to feel like I'm part of the club. So, really, I have no good reason for wanting a gmail account... What I would use it for, is another question entirely.

    My moniker here is a pseudonym that is not easily tracked to me (unless you have access to the logs, in which I'm quite easily trackable by my IP address). Thus, I would use a gmail account to correspond to others who want to contact me through Slashdot.

    Of course, I (just now) set up a

  • Hey Well I'm still trying to think of a good joke. But as soon as I do I'll post it. In the meantime I thought I'd just post a good reason as to why I'd like a gmail account. Apart from the obvious, I'm from South Africa, and so in all likelihood I'd be the first person in the country to have one, and you would have helped me to achieve that... How satisfying would that thought be? =) Hope that is reason enough for you... -Luke lrandall (at) bluebottle.com
  • I've sent them out to all 3 of you. (Got a spare account which got invites too :D ), so keep them comming.

    Could you also not put your e-mails like a b c [at] h o t m a i l (dot) c o m please. I understand it's for security but having to remove all the spaces is alot of hassle. just A bc@H otmail.C om would do fine me thinks.

    BTW Robin Williams jokes are BAD, he touchs more kiddies then most men see in their lives XP
  • lukelrandall@bluebottle.com bounced :/

    and Allan I'm not even sure what cowboys cry of joy is so... unless it's allan@bumrape.com I'm all out of clues..

    If you don't feel happy posting them here then e-mail me at M ikari@G mail.C om and I'll relay them that way.

    Ignore above post (other then the robin williams bit), I was sending them as I typed it you see.
  • I am currently contributing to an open source ASP.NET web mail front. It is intended to be used by anyone and everyone who needs such product for their Windows based servers. The purpose of this is to help provide more open source alternatives for Windows systems. It is also being designed to work under mono. Having a Gmail account would be extremelly usefull for research and developement purposes. I already have a big email account on my own server. My reason for a Gmail account is to contribute to the
  • Sorry i mean it like thanks a lot

    But because I didn't put in any HTML it all come out as one line... Hope the offer still stands cos I was really psyched to finally get a gmail account =)
  • Adolf your one has just this second been sent (it'll be in the spam box so check there).

    Bluebottle is one weird ass e-mail. It asked me to click a link to comfirm I wasn't spam basicly. So I dunno how it'll react to a Gmail invite which can't respond. But we'll see, theres enough easy to sign up free e-mails you could get it sent to if it doesn'tget through.

    I got another set of invites a couple of days ago (I guess Google likes me giving them out to people huh). Which leaves me with 10 total, I like to ke
    • Well, since you are practically giving those gmails away to anyone who smiles at you, please will you consider yourself smiled at so sweetly?! :)
      I would even put on a funny little dance for one, without you having to get me drunk. How's that? I guess you wont know if im serious since there is this cyber space thing between us, but i would be soo excited to have one, and since only one other south african have asked, that would make me the second south african with a gmail, and that's quite cool huh...
      Anyw
    • Oh, and since i was so busy asking i forgot to give my address... :) So here it is:

      Thanks again!
  • ... if everyone seems to be trying to get those invites - why not try myself? pilif [at) pilif.ch Thanks! Philip
  • If you've really got 20, I could use one.
    hellish@comcast.ne t
  • If you have any left, I would love to have one! My email add is barry @k ukkuk. org

    Thanks

  • I sent to everyone so far. I'm not 100% sure if I sent one to pilif but I seem to recall I have so if Pilif could reply telling me if I did or not I'd be greatful.

    I've got 9 left at this moment in time. Every time I empty an account (I have two) They seem to get restocked with 6 more. Guess Google like me or something.

    So more still to hand out if people want them.
  • I think I'm the only one left who reads /. who doesn't have a gmail account. How about putting me out of my misery?

    I don't have a joke right now, but I've said some funny things on /. (at least the mods think so).

  • I'm ill right now so not really doing a whole lot. I'll try and get the invites out tomorrow if I feel better but no promises :(

    If I don't think I will send them ASAP.
  • i just want to get the username i want before someone takes it :) and i can finally get out of my yahoo thing, cause its killing me.

    feel free to sent to gmailinv@hype.be
