•    If you want a Gmail invite, we have lots of them to give-away. So send me an email, [e-mail], with “Gmail Invite? in the subject line and we will get that right out to you. We gave away a Gmail account to Ian B. who I believe is in the UK as his account has “googlemail.com? in stead of “gmail.com?. I also sent him a link to Chuck Toamsi’s Gmail Podcast where Chuck tells you how to get the most out of your Gmail account. Speaking of the Gmail Podcast, here’s the promo.
