On first anniversary of its Gmail service, Google announced on April 1 that it will increase storage quota of all GMail users from 1 GB to 2 GB. And it does not end there. Google promised more space as you reach end of the quota.
Georges Harik, product management director for Gmail, said that some very active users had begun to worry that the 1 gigabyte of storage that had seemed immense a year ago would soon be used up.
“We’ve had anxiety attacks as a few of the people who have been heavy Gmail users have been coming close to the limit,” Harik said. “They’ve been asking us, ‘what are you going to do?’”
The company determined, Harik said, that the right thing to do would be “to keep giving people more space forever.”
Interesting! Even if I don’t use GMail, the news is so good for the free mail users that it should not be ignored.
And If you still don’t have a GMail account, contact me. I have loads of invites!
