GMail invite up for grabs

June 8, 2004 by chris | 9 comments

I just got a few more invites to Google Mail and I’ve decided to give one of them away to a lucky visitor.

Leave a comment explaining why I should give you an invite. The best comment posted in the next week wins the invite.

Update: GMail accounts are selling for $50 or more on eBay. You’ll have to make it obvious you’re not going to sell it. I’ll expect a prompt email from your new GMail account. However, if nobody claims it, I’m selling it and taking the money to the bar. Update: Its now a week later and the only people to comment already have GMail accounts (I’ve already sent them invites). Sad, very sad. Update: I have no more invites. So stop asking.

    I should receive an invite for a couple reasons…

    1. I read your blog every day.
    2. I comment from time to time on your blog.
    3. I am the first one to leave a comment saying why I should receive a response.
    4. Most likely I will be seeing you frequenly in Pittsburgh since I will be there majority of weekends visiting Aimee.

    Thanks, Bryon

    You read my blog every day? Thats kind of creepy… I hope that doesn’t mean you want to make out with me…

    New Requirement: If you feel you should receive a GMail invite because you read my site every day, you must be female. And please include a link to a photo in your comment.

    Hey, I qualify for a free gmail account based on those requirements! Too bad I already have one. $50 on ebay, eh? I could use the $$.

    I want it! I don’t have one yet. Should have checked your blog while you were actually still online.

    Does the fact that you can put Linux on Big Iron count?
