Can't get rid of your Gmail invitations? Try the isnoop.net gmail invite spooler!

(And if anyone who wants a Gmail invitation still hasn't got one, leave your name and email address in a comment to this post; comments are screened. Real name is preferred.)

It's so unfair. I want to use a second gmail account for fandom-related things (so people who search my email won't find the gay porn), but I have a hotmail address that I use for fandom things already ... and I've had that address since junior high.

Woe.

Hotmail sucks.

(Why're you screening everything? Have you had nasty-people issues?)

No - it's just on this entry in case someone wants an invitation but doesn't want everyone to see their (real) name or email address.

Er, I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say.

Hotmail sucks because it won't let you change the address? Or even if you did create a second Gmail account, you'd've chosen the same username, which would let people connect it to you because of your Hotmail account? Or what?

Though Gmail doesn't allow people more than one account anyway.

If you want another webmail account, I quite like http://www.fastmail.fm/ - SSL, no ads in the web interface even for free users (but taglines/signatures on emails if you're free), and an interface that I find fairly usable.

I am having a very stupid day.

Hotmail sucks because the interface is designed poorly, it offers very limited space, and each time you sign in, it has advertisments for insipid articles.

I would ditch my hotmail account, but it was the first account I had for my LiveJournal, so I have to keep it.

I'm surprised that Gmail doesn't allow people more than one account, with how pushy they are about getting more accounts signed up. =)

*agrees*

Oh, eep. Yes, you would have to keep it - what with Hotmail reassigning accounts are 90 days, anyone could hijack your account that way. (Unless you got someone to remove that address from your LiveJournal email address history somehow.)

Hm, yeah. Ours not to reason why.

But it does seem as if they're flooding everyone with invitations these days.
