Yay! I knew it would happen sooner or later!

[apocalypsos]

Today, I got an email. It said,

Dear trollprincess,

Congratulations! You're now officially the only person on the planet who doesn't have a Gmail account! Please have this Oreo we found under our desks, our deepest condolences, and 6 Gmail invites.

Sincerely,

Gmail Support Staff

So, now I have no Gmail account, but I do have a cookie. And some lint I scraped off the cookie.

Life is good. :)

I will give you my firstborn if you will take a sodding gmail invite.

Pleeeeeeeeease?

You're not the only person.

What is gmail and why does everyone want an account? It's like a super!sekrit!club, or something...

I got gmail the other day. I like it.

color me without one as well. I mean, sure there have been times when a Gb seemed like the answer to life's questions but it's not. No, the truth can now be told. The answer is is really Haagen Dazs' Dulce de Leche ice cream.

I don't have a gmail account, either. I don't like the idea of some software automatically scanning the contents of my mail.

I've so far remained gmail-free. Although I'm considering it. Maybe. Possibly. I don't know, I feel like the last thing to jump off the thing. (is that goats and mountains? or lemurs? or dodos? or people, off a bridge? I don't know.)

I have been stridently avoiding getting one. I HAVE three email addresses, I need no more. Gmail-less livejournalers of the world unite!

I'm so puzzled by the omgantiGmail stance people seem to have developed here. I mean, it's an email service, not the bubonic plague. I have one, and it works much better for me than Hotmail (killstabdie) did; it's hardly a badge of quirky alternative cool not to have one. *gets flamed*

Do what I'm doing give them away as prizes. *G*

I must admit, they are extremly useful for a dedicated email for school. The TA's use them in my department because you never delete anything and so you can always have a student's email handy if there is contention about something.

Also, you hang on to all department mailings, and that's good.

Gmail is very useful for some things.
