    Was wondering how long it would take Hotmail to do this.

    Good news can go on holidays now without having to track down a cafe ;)

    Im glad to see it- Im not a hotmail fan, but 250MB is where I'd move if I were Bill Gates. Not 1GB since that would be a follower- but over the top of Yahoo who is the market leader. Nice move, enough space, I applaude it.

    When will Anthony get his active link posting ability back? It's about time if you ask me... Copy and pasting is just soooo boring!

    Are all of the web email services changing their mailbox sizes because Google decides to have 1 GB per mailbox? What is the whole point behind this? (mind you, Im not complaining. I like the 1 GB and 250 MB and 100 MB limits over the old 10 MB and 1 MB limits.)

    Like I have been saying, Google has made the internet better by making the competition improve their programs. Not only in email, but look at all of the new keyword advertising programs, www.bidclix.com www.allfeeds.com and many others.

    As far as my live linking is concerned, I am just trying to "not get banned" at this point. So live linking is the members problem, they are the one's who bannished me to the basement of no live linking by their votes against me.

    Now Compar wants to put up an election on "Is Anthony Cea a Jerk", to think Bob has had me fooled the last couple of weeks, having me think he is a friend.

    I think if all members picket in front of Shawns house he would restore my live linking permissions without a member vote.

    Well if Google is hosting 1GB of mailbox space for each account, and Google will eventually be open to the public, how on earth will they have enough server space to accomodate that many mailboxes of that size?

    Storage is cheap, Google can sub contract the storage
    out to whoever, could be a data center in Timbucktoo.

    Read the terms and conditions. The information could be stored anywhere in the world.

    The average user isn't going to use anywhere remotely close to their limit. And storage space is so cheap, that Google can easily cover the cost of a full MB per user with the AdWords ads within it. Cost per GB these days is around $0.33, easily covered by the AdWords.

    When hotmail reaches 5 GB I will say they have arrived, at least for now its a step in the right direction.
