Yesterday, if you didn&#8217;t have a Gmail account, it&#8217;s because either a) you weren&#8217;t cool enough or b) you didn&#8217;t know the right people.  To get an account, you had to be invited by someone who already had an account (classic viral marketing).  But TODAY, if you don&#8217;t have a Gmail account, it&#8217;s simply because (despite your best intentions) you haven&#8217;t visited gmail.com yet.  Not to worry, though, I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll do it.  Right after reading this blog post, in fact!  And when you do, you&#8217;ll revel in the glory of e-mail organized by conversation and frolick in the meadow of 2+ gigabytes of free space.  You&#8217;ll spend the rest of the day logged into gmail, thinking up labels with which to organize your correspondence instead of creating folders for your various e-mail interactions.  Eventually you&#8217;ll get around to creating filters, so that your incoming e-mail ALREADY KNOWS where you want it to be!  Oh, glorious day!  And you&#8217;ll never lose information buried in your e-mail program, because with Google every scrap is available to you at the click of the &#8220;search&#8221; button.  Yes, friends, today is a good day.  A very good day.  And the rest of us (who have been using Gmail since we were yeah-tall) are very happy for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alright, so this has been a very long time coming, but Google (unoffical motto:&#8221;Favourite Web Company of the Shinn Boys&#8221;) is now offering their ledgendary Gmail service to ANYBODY for FREE!
