Do they only do firstname.lastname addresses? Could it be that someone named Kelly Lee got it?

Firstname.lastname is Google's default suggestion for your address, but you can change it to whatever you please, as far as I know. For example...

Whoever is willing to pay $10000 or even $5000 for an email address should not be allowed to function in society.

Dude, that is like primo ideaspace! If I was Jerry Bruckheimer I would pay three times that, and then, for the Bad Boys 3 campaign? OH MAN. I think we all know where that would go.

Festus, eh? That's less than an hour from here. With $10 000, he could probably buy, like, a dozen meth labs.

I need Gmail as much as I need a hole in the heads. What a stupid word, anyway. Why not simply "G-Mail"??

Well, no-one ever writes "e-mail" anymore, do they?

I think the idea is that this could be a rare opportunity to get a normal, proper, respectable email address. Not one made up of silly words, or one that has numbers added to the end. A good, official looking one that everyone will remember because, hay, it's your name.

It's certainly looks better on my CV than "SentVeg" does.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Hopefully you don't still have the name field set to "Jimmy the Sentient Vegetable"?

Maybe I should put my ship's email address on eBay. For $9,999.99 you can be [email protected] Now there's a rare opportunity!

I'm slightly annoyed at Hobbes' rather rude decision to be much more attractive than me though. That's just rude. - PsyLiam, Oct 27, 2005.

Now I have six more, if anyone else wants one. Let me know your name and current e-mail address, if you do.

I do. [Frown]

Before they opened it up for people to test and whore for money, I was sure they'd use the googlemail.com domain they acquired a couple years ago. I wonder if they have any plans to make use of it.

Picard: Mr. Crusher, what's our maximum speed this week?
Wesley: [checking manual] Uh, 9.4, sir.
Picard: Very good. Take us to Warp 9.8 then.
Wesley: Aye, sir. Warp 9.2 it is.

Wait a second...you got three invites (like I did), used them, and now they've given you another six? Crazy. And why haven't I had another 6?
