Remember when gmail was invite only?

I remember GmailSwap, and you traded invites. The fact that GMail was exclusive made everyone want to join.

No. At least the people who were invited got a better domain - @gmail rather than open sign ups where it's now @googlemail.

You can use either, for example, if I sign up with "[email protected]" I can either use [email protected] or [email protected], both point to the same inbox.

i got invited yet mine says @googlemail at the top.

although when signing up to stuff i can use @gmail and it'll still go to my inbox

I have a Gmail.com account, and I use Google Apps For Your Domain for all my email It's the best email solution around, definitely better than the cPanel default options. You get the brilliant interface, unrivalled client support (mobile, IMAP, POP3) and you can use Google Sync to sync calendar and contacts with iPod Touch and Windows Mobile phones

GMail is the best. I like how it makes email into like proper conversations and how I can just leave it open and it'll update date its self. Also the fact you don't have to pay for POP3, IMAP and so on is great compared to Hotmail. The Mobile App is great as well.

Nobody ever invited me

My friend was telling me about this a few years ago, how you had to be invited...but I just went and registered? Dunno. Mines @gmail.com.
