Gmail Invites to Burn
Okay, so I’ve already given out Gmail invitations to everyone I know who’s expressed interest in getting one. Now, I have a couple left, but I think it’s ridiculous to capitalize on the bizarre demand for a free service by selling them or swapping for them.
That said, if any of my friends, family, or cherished readers want them, I’d be happy to offer the invites I have left. So, let me know if you’re interested in beta testing Gmail. The only requirement I have is that I actually know you, either in real life or via my blog. If you can convince me that I know you, I’ll give you the invite. If not, please don’t bother asking. It’s that simple.
For what it’s worth, I’ve been using Gmail for a couple months now and really like it.

You probably don’t know me, but I’ve read your blog, and I’d love to have an invite. My email is “gretzky-99@juno.com”. Thank you so much if you send one.

Well, I was planning on saving these invites for people I actually know, but I seem to have already given them to everyone who’s interested. So, I’m happy to give you my last invite. Just let me know your first name and last name, and I’ll send it to you (if I still have it left when I hear from you).
