Google are of course paying me handsomely for mentioning this...Gmail opens service for Irish users
Gmail, Google's free e-mail service, was opened up to Irish internet users yesterday at www.gmail.com. Up until now new users had to be invited by an existing user of the service, but now anyone in Ireland can register.
The Gmail service provides a large storage capacity for mail (over 2.5 Gigabytes), anti-spam filters, quick search of old mail and the ability to view e-mail conversations around a single subject.
Gmail competes with Microsoft's popular Hotmail service but Google is hoping greater storage capacity and other unique features will win over new customers.
