I’ve been asking some real-world pals if they want invites to Gmail, and the universal reply I’m getting is… "What?  I need less e-mail, not more!" I’m weary of attempting to explain why this a good thing and why they’d want it, that it might actually help them with their overflow.  The more I try to explain, the more I come off like a geekier-than-thou evangelist.  It’s no skin off my nose, I just wanted to make sure I included them so they wouldn’t get mad at me later for not offering.  And I know there are lots of people out there who do want invites.  So!  First three people who want one, speak now and you shall have it.  No beefcake shots required.  (grin)

I’m saving one invite in case one of the aforementioned friends changes their mind, but I’m not holdin’ my breath or nothin’.  ;-)
