Yet More Gmail Invites

Once again, I’ve got five Gmail invites to give out.  Instead of just simply asking, you’ll need to tell me why you need one.  And I’ll need your first and last name.

As usual, it’s first come, first serve.

Because I’m a nice guy? Who writes decent software? And needs some tech-related goody to play with?

Chris's gravatar Chris United States June 18, 2004

OK, Paul. An invite is on its way…

It helped your case that I know you. grin

Hi, do you still got an account to give out? I don’t need one, really, but I’m curious, and am looking for a new free webmail anyways.

Johan,

I love your Tengwar font. It’s the best one out, in my opinion. By the way, a Gmail invite is on its way…

Because I don’t have one. May I be invited, please?

Would you mind giving me one, please?
Also, I’ve just started learning Quenya. I’ve been looking at the course on the ardalambion web site. Do you know of other good resources? Thanks.

Thanks! Oh, and thank you for your kind words too! By the way, in case you’re interested, I’ve recently published a new tengwar font. Well, not new, it’s quite old as a matter of fact, and not nearly as good as Annatar… Just click on my name.

Johan, I checked out the Tengwar Naive. It’s definitely more rough than others, but its history explains why.

Gara and James and anyone else who might be interested… I read a post on Wil Wheaton’s site last night that inspired me. I’ve decided to start saving up my Gmail invites for the soldiers out there in Iraq and Afghanistan and wherever else. My cousin, Ricky, is a soldier out in Iraq right now, so I emailed him and asked him to give me a list of guys who would be interested in Gmail invites. Once I’ve gone through that list, then I’ll start giving away Gmail invites to the public again.

Who knows… it may go public before I’m done with the list he gives me. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Go to www.blogdex.com and look for sites that are talking about Gmail. Click on the track this site link and go down the list. There are quite a few people giving away invites lately, so you have a very good chance of getting one that way.

James, regarding Quenya courses… I’m not exactly sure where there are other Quenya courses, but you could probably find stuff on Google. Also, I would highly recommend checking out work by Thorsten Renk (sp?). He’s very good with Tolkien’s languages. I believe he’s got lessons on Sindarin and Quenya.

Thanks for the info. I’ll check it out.

Heylo,
I’ve heard that invites are only sent to American users of that Blogger service. Since i am Bulgarian, is ther a chance of receinving an invite through my Blogger account at Google?

If anyone would like to send an invite for the sake of sending one, there is one more e-mail hospitable for having it! Thank you! (flywaii@yahoo.com )
