What Storage Technology Gmail Using? - a discussion....

BitShift
I think it is virtual space also because on the main Gmail page it says "2.5 gig and counting" or wutever and you see the number slowly going up.

This just seems like me as an advertising stunt in which they will allow a user to have an allocation that large but i seriously doubt they have that space already reserved for you on some random hard drive

The number of gmail users has to be growing exponentially, with the way the invite works, after some thought you can see why they do invites instead of open registration

open regitration would include so many new users they wouldnt be able to keep up, but through invites the pace is a little more steady

Virtual or not, I do think Google does have the funds to invest in massive amounts of storage. More importantly, I do think that Google has the funds to put into R&D into developing cutting edge quantum computing and quantum information storage (as a much more future proof technology). Resources of course should hardly be much of a problem seeing that Google's Fy'05 results post $1.46 billion in NET earnings; playing around with that kind of a war chest has got to put Google on the path to getting the best in areas it focusses on.

  4. Hotmail Controls Spam Beter Than Gmail
    (20)
    I'm using GMail since June 2005. I love the sleek interface with no graphics and also the ease
    of use. I really went after it because it was then offering the highest space for inbox. I also
    have a Hotmail Account, eventhough I use Gmail I love Hotmail. The best part of Hotmail is that its
    spam filters are more strong than that of GMail. I receive an average of 50 spam mails each day,
    some even skip the spam filter and is displayed in Inbox instead of moviing it to spam folder.
    Whereas in Hotmail I seldom get any spam. The inteface is also so good and easy an now t....

  13. A Gmail Sign Up Webpage

    I think a kinda page is needed where people can post their email addresses so that they recieve a
    gmail invitation on that address. The person who posts his email address, basically routes a
    request to an already existing member(s). The member sends him an invitation and acknowledges it (so
    that not all members end up sending invites). This would, for the time being, act as a sign up page
    for Gmail. I know so many newbies on net who have to do way with services like yahoo and hotmail

    providers. Who do you think is winning? I remembered that Yahoo! quickly followed up with 250mb
    soon after Gmail. I was using Hotmail, and I was conficent that MSN will also increase storage
    space. But they didn't and I switced to Gmail which now offers 2 gig. Hotmail has only recently
