Blogging is actually pretty cool. Try it and you might like it. I hope I could make this my personal website too. Uhmm, check back later, I'll update it whenever I have spare time.
Meanwhile, if you have lots of spare time :).. check this game, beware it could be pretty addictive :)

GMail account
Just got my gmail account: sindux@gmail.com.
My first impression is... WWWWOOOOWWWW... 1 GB of email. Maybe this could be my email of a life-time. I couldn't think how to spend those 1 GB space. Thanks to Google for their great service. Anyway, 1 GB is plenty today, but who knows 5 years from now. 1 GB maybe like 1 MB today. :)
My second impression after using GMail just half-day and started receiving replies from my friends: Cooooolll guys!! You really need to sign-up. My outgoing message has no ad (at least now, not sure later). And the interface is colorful. The thread view is the best of all. Heavy use of shortcut which is good since I'm a fan of keyboard :). Excellent auto-completing address. Excellent heavy use of JavaScript, it really helps improve the interactivity experience. It's fast!
What I think still missing from GMail, but I believe they'll improve it:
- Address book is too simple & primitive.
- Email notification (something like we got from Yahoo messenger)
- Virus scanner
I've been using Yahoo all this time, no complain about them. They're great too, and in fact they just upgraded my mail box to 100MB last week. Thanks to Yahoo! too. I guess I'll still be using both.
FAQ :)
Q: How do you get one?
A: Uhm, I was invited by a friend. Here's his page: http://rgrig.blogspot.com/. He told me that after about a week, I'd be able to invite my friends too.
Q: Invite me! Invite me! Invite me!
A: Ok, don't worry. As soon as I can invite you, I'll do it. Post below and leave your comments OK. It's a FIFO queue. so hurry up, post. I was told that you can only invite 5/6 people. Depends on my activity, so post your comment to increase my activity, OK. Thanks guys :)
Q: Is it really 1 GB of space?
A: Dunno, maybe, because that's what the counter below said. Send me mail-bomb, etc and we'll find out :)
