Gmail was once the ones boasting hundreds of times the space of its competitors, and now they are falling behind them all. Really though they pulled a lot of people in because of that, and now people don't want to switch. That is pretty ironic.

Why? Because I’m using only about 11-13MB’s of space on my Gmail account. On top of that, I have two (2) Gmail accounts. It’s not that big of a deal, but I thought I’d pass the word along anyway. Basically, the counter for the storage amount in Gmail is increasing faster. You can find more details over on the Official Gmail Blog. Cybernet Tech has a great graph of what the storage increase will look like until December 2008. [...] [...] Digg it Which is fantastic for some and not really a big deal for me. Why?
