- osc1882, on 10/10/2007, -10/+173Yahoo went unlimited? .. I hope it brings them down. Someone make some code that lets me use yahoo as a hard drive. I'm filling it up with ALL of the worlds music. And they will just have to suck it.
BUT, I am glad google is upgrading because:

- brundlefly76, on 10/10/2007, -2/+110Cool! Maybe they did this to celebrate Gmail's third year in BETA!!!
- chris9902, on 10/10/2007, -5/+76they have a delete button for a reason.
- UGM2099, on 10/10/2007, -8/+68Hit me up google.. I'm teetering at 98% of 2886 MB.
- ziptnf, on 10/10/2007, -4/+59WHAT 9000?????
- andrewcod, on 10/10/2007, -2/+57You actually need to buy the additonal storage. It can be done here:
https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageStorage
However, you need to pay on a yearly basis, starting at 6GB extra, and going up to 500GB extra.
The prices are:
6 GB ($20.00 per year)
25 GB ($75.00 per year)
100 GB ($250.00 per year)
250 GB ($500.00 per year) - llbbl, on 10/10/2007, -2/+55Ya except you pay what $50 /yr for dotMac email. Doesn't seem exactly the same.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/10/2007, -1/+49Deleting things is not the Google way.
- nodonoug, on 10/10/2007, -3/+48whooooosh
- MikeD606, on 10/10/2007, -2/+45Yea I've been using gmail for like 3 years and only used 8% of the 2886 MB
- Trixrox, on 10/10/2007, -8/+49So they can loose your email and blame it on being in beta?
- meatmcguffin, on 10/10/2007, -7/+47Talking of Apple, I never thought i'd see the day that dotMac would have more storage than GMail. It's like bizarro world.
- szembek, on 10/10/2007, -6/+44idiot.
- thespiff, on 10/20/2007, -2/+37Not only was that a lame joke, but it was a misquote.
"I see your schwartz is as big as mine." - SomeImagination, on 10/10/2007, -3/+33It's a trap!
- Nyper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+29Gmail came out in 2004.. you haven't had it 4-5 years
- mrmagenta, on 10/10/2007, -2/+31probably force of habit
- dalyricalg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+28The story has been updated! You can now buy additional storage!
http://digg.com/tech_news/Google_accounts_with_9030Mb - mediaphile, on 10/10/2007, -0/+26I think he was probably trying to give the impression of stopping in mid word. Should have gone with dashes instead of an ellipsis.
- shaun1018, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24I would just sign up for another gmail account and forward all my stuff for storage.
- killerofkiller, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24what a god awful skin you have running...
and your search bar:
"viral marketing"? - PRlME, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24delete the copy of PSCS3 and Auto CAD 2007 you have stored on there
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+24i like how every time someone posts a screenshot of ANYTHING on digg, people scrutinize the OS, browser, font, etc. more than the content
- robisfunky, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23 Yeah... why is gmail still in beta?
- DarkSideofOZ, on 10/10/2007, -0/+22You win one free Internet
- agent_cyrax, on 10/10/2007, -2/+24Thread over.
- sleepwalkers, on 10/10/2007, -0/+21Yeah, I hate it when my e-mail is loose.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20I love being able to use gmail on any other phone ever.
- OutThisLife, on 10/10/2007, -3/+22People actually need that much space? o_o
- Otto, on 10/10/2007, -0/+19Actually, if you assume that that is guaranteed uptime and backed up and such, $500 a year for offsite redundant storage isn't all that bad.
- nimawin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18privacy or piracy? cuz piracy takes alot of space too..
- dbr_onix, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18It is when you have 2.8 Gigabytes of emails... Delete spam, delete several year old mailing list emails, delete those attachments you haven't opened in years, and will never open again. Tada, back to sensible amount of emails
- Tiak, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17People don't really hack hotmail, people answer easy-to-guess questions...
- elvenseven, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18You win.
