Ok, So Now I'd Like a GMail Account...
So, I was over at Pejmanesque and some kind-hearted soul invited him to get a GMail account. Congratulations to Pej!
Greg Narain of Social Twister is hyping the GMail accounts over on Stowe Boyd's Get Real column.
Alright, you'd think that the second most connected person (at least in LinkedIn ;-)) in Washington, DC would have gotten an invite already, but nooooooo... We Washingtonians are always a bit behind, technological "have-nots", if you will. We're on a 6PM EDT "news cycle", while the left coast (at 3PM) is still surfing, or biking, or climbing, or blogging, or marrying each other. I bet 98% of people with those coveted GMail IDs are in the "valley".
I'd like to get one the normal way, without having to give up a first-born child, or have to bid on one of the 3,027 GMail accounts on Ebay; that seems so "20th century". I'm already on Blogger. With invites on GMail and Orkut, I'd have a hat trick!
So, if you can, please invite me. I promise I'll be nice to you!

I think I am close to getting one. If I do I will try and get you in bud.
As for GetReal, it's pretty funny that most of the posts I make there end up being attributed back to Stowe, haha (GMail was my child).
Of course, I've run into this trap myself before and associated entries with the primary author.

Greg,
I fixed the link to give you proper credit! You are rightly the king hypester of GMail!

You two losers don't have a gmail account, yet? j/k
Send me an email with which email you would like the invitation to go to, and I'll send you one. I recommend it not be hotmail, yahoo, etc because the invites get caught in the spam trap.
