They might be indeed making one but todays announcement has to be fake. No way anyone would give away a gig of free storage.

For what it's worth, The New York Times also ran a story about the service.

but 1GB?!

According to CNN TV they will be able to search your email messages and send spam mail about items that might interest you based on what is in your email.

edited to correct CNN link.

1 gb is nuts, I don't see how they could offer that much space

The story's been pulled from CNN's site, so maybe it is a prank afterall.

Blizzard's was pretty good, they had three. They did one for WoW about two headed ogres, which frankly looked pretty cool (two players per body )

Edit: nevermind, the story is still there, the link is just bad

# Storage: Google believes people should be able to hold onto their mail forever. That's why Gmail comes with 1,000 megabytes (1 gigabyte) of free storage ? more than 100
times what most other free webmail services offer.

THATS NUTS !!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit:
>>>
Today, a handful of users will begin testing the preview version of Gmail. Unlike other free webmail services, Gmail is built on the idea that users should never have to file or delete a message,

Yes.....wishful thinking... think these people never signed up for sweepstakes at publisher's clearinghouse...
