I really hate people that think they can just use a mail accaunt for anything they want... A website takes far more bandwith then an email accaunt -,-... Lets hope gmail destoys these companies before they destroy gmail...
Oh and with this company's I mean gmailhost.com not trap17 or something... (just in case). And sorry that I double post, but I cannot edit my posts here |

In reply, I think that we are totally entitled to use the 2.whatever gigs that the give us now. We have signed up for an account and they have offered us that space from the beginning - who are they to say what we are to use it for?. Plus, its not like everyone is going to be gourging their accounts with 2 gigs of pictures. I'm not sure if you've tried it but I use it on a regular basis and it takes a really long time to upload, even on a good connection. It really is just a real convenience because people usually have to log into google through the site, then compose mail, then add the attachment. This turns all those steps into 1 click, drag and drop convenience. So really, I think this serves to save google's bandwidth, as most people only upload documents and things like that rather than 500Mb movie files.

I have no idea how Google gets the money to do all this for free. The Gmail and now Gmail Drive webscripts would need gigantic servers/drives devoted just to that purpose, but what does Google get out of it? The only thing (as far as I've seen) that Google actually gets money from is some of their advertising programs and the stock market. Where are they raking in all the cash from?

I'm sad that I can't use GMail drive because of my slow connection (56k dial up networking) but I think it's not neccessory for me because my hard drive space is enough and if I want to host file I also upload it to my hosting~

wow, this is cool and all but i tried using this add-on in firefox tha alows you to put files onto gmail, but it did it using ftp, but the only problem was that if you used it you may have trouble attaching files, is it possible that this would happen with gmail drive, and is this against gmail's tos?
