so Google goofed on the Gmail accidentally
Tags :Technical
Users found themselves logging in to a wonderful
surprise. I know I
talked about all the space they
were giving users in the beta but this is a bit over the edge.
Several users of the
search engine's Gmail Web-based e-mail service noticed Tuesday that their
storage limits had quietly been raised to 1 million megabytes, or 1 terabyte.
That's four times the typical capacity of a new high-end PC's hard drive.
I wonder what would have happened if you
found time to fill more than 1GB when they made the mistake. Would
they delete your data or send nasty letters like a good Notes admin would
to someone over their quota?
Yahoo has responded to this Gmail move
by upping their space to 100MB over the current below 10MB that they offer.
Who says friendly competition is dead?
