G-Mail is now free

February 15th, 2007

G-Mail (Google Mail) is Google’s webmail service and was started as an experiment in 2004. Prior to yesterday, the only way you could get an account was by being invited by someone who already had a G-Mail account.

G-Mail’s features include a search (naturally) function so that you can search your mailbox to find a particular message and a massive amount of space so that users don’t have to keep an eye on their space allowance.

There is also a chat function, kind of like the Skype Chat, where you can set your online status to “busy” or even “angry”, and of course, this too has a search function!

You can also read your mail on your phone, and it is available in over 40 languages. Best of all, it is now free and open to the public, with or without an invite.
