I have several gmail invites.  If anyone here wants one, send a message to my damnsmall messenger.  I will check it in the morning.

I'd read this before accepting a GMail invite:

Tinfoil-hat crowd going overboard again or real concerns? You decide.

I'd love to tryout gmail!
Unfortunately I already have 6+ email accounts I use on a regular basis and a stack of others I've never bothered to use. :O

Do you find any noticeable advantage/benefits over the usual email systems?
What about spam blocking/filtering?

Cheers

Now this is starting to make gmail look very interesting. In theory you could even have all your dsl files located there! :O

GmailFS - Gmail Filesystem

GmailFS provides a mountable Linux filesystem which uses your Gmail account as its storage medium. GmailFS is a Python application and uses the FUSE userland filesystem infrastructure to help provide the filesystem, and libgmail to communicate with Gmail.

GmailFS supports most file operations such as read, write, open, close, stat, symlink, link, unlink, truncate and rename. This means that you can use all your favourite unix command line tools to operate on files stored on Gmail (e.g. cp, ls, mv, rm, ln, grep etc. etc.).
