Finally! I'm back! So, let's get Gmailin'!
Ok, sooo, because I was gone for so darn long, I'm just going to start anew. I've received a few e-mails from some friendly folks who have invites now and want to pay them forward. I also have 10 invites myself (possibly more if I can use my hubby's).
So, I'm going to do this as easy as possible: first come, first serve.
If you'd like an invite, please reply to this post with either your real name or your internet handle (username, chat name, alias, whatever), as well as the e-mail address where you want your invite sent.*
If you are reading this and have invites, e-mail me at: propaganda [at] gmail [dot] com and I'll help you figure out where to send your extra invites.
Thanks to everyone for your continued support and for understanding Got Gmail's downtime due to some personal things I needed to attend to.
*If you use hotmail, yahoo, msn, aol, or earthlink, your invites may end up in the trash, junk, or bulk mail folders. Be sure to check those! Also, if you know of any other e-mail provider that dumps the invites, feel free to let me know so I can add it to the list here.
Alrighty then! Let's get you those invites!
Cheers,
Mel :)
[Edit: My husband is contributing 12 more invites! And I may be able to weasel 6 more out of my Dad.]

Nah, I'm not being generous really - I've had Gmail since April and invites since May, and although Google seems to think my supply of friends is inexhaustible, after 4 1/2 months I've pretty much run out of people to give my invites to! So, I'll be dropping in here whenever I have invites, and sending them out to whoever's next on the list.
BTW, I even got interviewed about Gmail by the NYT! Here I am, although I'm not looking my most photogenic in that shot~ Sam (who's still got a few invites to spare...)

Danny has been fixed up with a shiny new invite.
I actually sent him his original invite, but re-used it when he didn't sign up within two weeks because I assumed he'd received an invite from elsewhere and no longer needed mine. That's happened to me several times since I started sending invites via sites like this, because people post requests in multiple blogs/forums and don't always remember to return to all of them to say that they no longer need an invite once they've got a Gmail account.
So, I try to make sure that invites aren't wasted by expiring before they've been used. I keep an eye on invites I've sent out, and if they haven't been used within two weeks and I haven't heard anything from the person they were sent to, I send them to someone else. If the original recipient then contacts me (like Danny did), to explain that they just hadn't gotten around to signing up, I send them a new invite. I don't mean to mess anyone about, I'm just trying for the optimal distribution of invites ;-)
So - to Danny, sorry for the confusion and your new invite should be in your inbox, I promise I won't resend it to anyone else even if you don't use it until the last 30 seconds of your three weeks. To anyone else, if you receive an invite from me and don't plan to use it right away, would you mind sending me a quick note saying that you received it and still want/need it? If I know you plan to use the invite, I won't recycle it.

Great article, Sam.
I've gotten a few invites sent back from those who have already received one, etc. It's a very good policy.
