Well, Boone @ work was nice enough to send me off a GMail invite. The new email service from all the rage, and even though the market has fallen out (they were selling for $15 at one point, down to under $1.00 now), they still are going strong.

I haven't gotten any invites of my own to give away, but will let you know when I do get some.

Some software has already become surfacing though as well.

• Pop Goes the GMail converts GMail to POP3, letting you get your GMail via normal POP3 mail (windows program).
• G-Mailto converts mailto: links on web pages to point to your GMail compose window (windows program that diddles with the registry).
• GCount is an OS/X app for checking GMail.
• A few more at the bottom of the G-Mailto page.

Some of those are ripe for porting to Linux as well. I might even attempt one myself!
