GMail INVITE frequency

I got: 5+5+6 last week and 6 this week so far

I have now 39 INVITES so far

If you dont use the quota of all your invites, then you dont get more INVITES. At least this seems to be the case with me

Yahoo Mail Vs GMail

Is Yahoo Really 100MB?
------------------------------------
The site says so. But if you log in using your old yahoo account, it
still says that you are using xx% out of 4MB (true as of June 15, 2004
9:40AM +5GMT :) A friend reported that this was not the case with him

But if you create a new account, the amount of total storage it
displays is 100MB. Still updating their records :)

I created a new Yahoo account of 100 MB and sent 2MB files thrice to my new and old yahoo accounts. My old yahoo cannot accept the third file as its quota of 4MB exceeded. My new yahoo account accepted it :)

Need a GMail Account
