The next five people to PM me will receive gmail invites. Please include an e-mail address and name to which I can send the invite.

How exactly is this working? Is Gmail invitation only or something? How did Chris, Dale, etc get the original invites?

Invitation only (it's still in "beta test"). When you become a member and start using the service, they give you invites you can share, in an apparently random process.

Yes, gmail is currently invite only. Every once in a while we receive new invites to give out.

I have heard to much about Gmail. I cant wait untill it goes main stream. I know I am going crazy with the multiple hotmail accounts.

That g-mail-is-too-creepy link has been posted a zillion times. Gmail is great. If you want it, use it, if you don't, leave it.
