Well, i have my account, i don't think it's a hoax, they just recieved a lots ot criticism from the public and security specialists about their privacy/security issues with the service, i think they're just fixing /channgig stuff.

I personally have rarly heard about Gmail, So i am personally unfamiliar with it. I would also like to no that because my brother was talking about it like a few weeks ago actually.

jr05linux: All it seem's to me is an email account with interesting features and a size limit of up to 1GB. Nothing real special about it considering most people don't get that much mail in the first place.

Pack their bags for what? They're still the best search engine used worldwide....trust me, if it was a hoax, then good for them cuz other people needed to increase their space anyways. I have My Gmail account and i'm happy with it. I can find plenty of use for the 1gig space. I had homework and projects in college reaching 40-50 megs a piece.

well pack their bags ment (something in a funny way) yahoo people chasing and beating the hell out of google people as it was bcoz of the (may be)hoax yahoo increased their space followed by other people so that's that

The idea of it being a hoax is ridiculous and ludicrous. They already have given out account's and invitation's for people to try it out. They have set a date (I believe) for when it will open to the public. So the hoax idea is totally out.

Well unless i'm dreaming then what have i been using for the last month or so...?...
