101 things to do with a Gmail Invite
Wednesday, 15th September 2004
Well, not quite..
I had too many Gmail invites and not enough people to give them to. Not because I (to quote Martin) “don’t have enough l33t friends” but rather because the vast majority of my friends are at least as high up as (if not higher than) me in the Gmail food chain.
Cue isnoop.net’s Gmail Invite Spooler. Basically, you send your Gmail Invites to them and they forward them on to the needy. It’s been running for 2 days and has already forwarded over 8000 invites.
The only flaw I can see is that there currently doesn’t appear to be any means of checking whether these needy people are indeed people or whether they are machines - but at the moment it’s a preferable solution to advertising them on this blog - coz I can’t tell the difference between a person and a machine either.
Thanks to Simon and his blogmarks for the link.

If you have a current invitation, I’d sure appreciate it. I just installed Google Desktop and it seems incomplete without Gmail. Thanks for considering my request.

Done.
You may want to check your spam filters tho - some other mail services automatically mark Gmail invites as spam I think….
