Yeh its going up by 100kb/s every 2-3 seconds and it use to go to 10kb/s every second, apparently we will get 2.75mb - 3mb more on our gmail accounts each day, so in a year we will have 3GB :)

Lol Gmail owns Hotmail so much :p 2.05GB for free, and pop access, 10mb file attachments and rich text formatting :woot:

Wow! especially the bit on..

Google needs a massive amount of storage. This week, Google said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that it would boost its investment in storage and servers to around US$500 million, a 50-percent jump from last year.

Next I hope they upgrade file attacments to 100mb - that would proper own :cool:?:DD

Agreed...

Hell knows what else google has lined up (messenger, browser etc). I wonder how things stay so secret at google.

Also, is it only me who noticed the Google Ride Finder[/b]> in google labs.

It shows you the actual position of taxis in the US (i'm guessing they use GPS or summint).

The Gmail storage counter will stop at 2075MB :no: :(

var CP = [
 [ 1112331600000, 1025 ],
 [ 1112439600000, 2050 ],
 [ 1113062400000, 2075 ]
];

Hint: View Page Source... ;)

It will hit 2075MB on 10 April 2005! :blink:

After 750,000 seconds or 208.(3) hours or 8.(6) days from 2 April 2005 :sleep:

Those are the points i think that it slows down?

Cos its slowed at 2050 so at 2075 it'll slow down like hell :yes:

I don't think so... because initial storage was 1000MB...

Maybe those are points were it will stop...

First time, it was a faster increase to 1025MB, then a slow one to 2050 and it will end at 2075...

,Apr 2 2005, 14:11]oh well, spoiled my fun...i thought we would have an extra GB by next year, oh well :(.  but i'm happy with 2075MB :) ...if only the attachment limit would be increased......

Sorry... Maybe I'm wrong... :cry:

I want the attachment to be increased too...

You can make a suggestion to Google at https://services.google.com/inquiry/gmail_suggest/

BTW: Now Gmail works with Opera 8.0 too :)

It is gonna stop at 2075mb probably, and google will manually add storage on, as if you put your system clock a year forward it says 2075 megabytes (and counting).

God this 2050mb -> 2075mb is awkward when you know what its gonna be :(
