Out of curiousity, I decided to do a little stress test to see if Gmail is really infinity.
I registered a Gmail account. Thanks to Hermit for his Gmail invite.
So for the past 2 days, I've been spamming my Gmail account. Continuosly sending out emails with a large attachment from my various email accounts to the Gmail account.
Below are the results.

ReplyDeleteI had nothing better to do. So decided to do this bo liao thing.
ReplyDeletehaha! siao! so free leh u!
ReplyDeleteNow you know why I wanted an account.
ReplyDeletegoogle never claimed to provide an infinite amount of space, that was just their april fool's joke. the amount of space allocated to each user rises each day by a megabyte or two, and the current total can be seen at the bottom or on the front page of gmail.com if you logout. no need for such an experiment!
ReplyDeleteBrandon, it was just a mini project for me.
ReplyDeleteDo you know when they will stop increasing?
Maybe they are waiting for Y! to increase to 1G then they'll stop. :)
Wah piangz... you damn eng man....
