I have had a gmail account for sometime and can't speak highly enough of them. Started by Google, the gmail accounts are free, but by invitation only. Once I started using it, I got rid of my hotmail and yahoo email accounts. A terrific search mechanism, unlimited storage, it is amazing and fun to use. Here's the deal for all you ALL NIGHT SURFING readers. The first 50 people who type in their current email address and email me by clicking on the CONTACT ME button on the left of this box will get A FREE INVITE TO USE GMAIL. These are currently selling for $20 and up on eBay, and I repeat, are not available to the public. It takes about 60 seconds to set up, you can keep your other email addresses, but I am telling you that you will be impressed. Only one per person please, to prevent people from selling them. I want to thank the Google people, and I hope none of you are caught surfing at work!
