Gmail Up to 5 Gigabytes

I just noticed that my Gmail mailbox now has 5 gigabytes up from 2.5 (and the original 1 gig.) Gmail also now allows 20 mb attachments, which is good for a collection of large photos or a small video. I am currently using 10% of this space with over 5,000 e-mails. I went looking for my oldest e-mail which was an exchange 7/1/2004 with Ted about whether or not it was his finger in a photo of a dik-dik.

Ted: “Actually it isn’t. I noticed that that picture made the rotation and

since I did take the picture and post it on a blog I figure it’s okay.

There was a woman standing at the fence and the dik-dik walked up and

jumped up on the fence to say hi. I would rather have just had a picture

of the dik-dik but it shows how friendly and small the dik-dik is by

having the hand. Susan said that woman’s hand was yucky looking, but you

can’t really tell from the picture.”

  1. My mailbox just jumped up to 10 GB from 7.5 GB. I don’t recall when it jumped to 7.5 GB from 5 GB. This all is related to Apple’s iCloud storage and Dropbox storage increases. Competition. Cloud War.
