I suspect that Google's Gmail is topping out now - everyone seems to have an account if they want one at this point, and everyone has accounts to give away.
Charles Miller's controlled growth theory is such a brilliant but simple idea that I'm sure it has to be true - in which case, we might see Gmail's doors thrown open to all and sundry any time soon. Still, in the meantime, I have invites if anyone wants one...
BTW, Charles' reply is a scream.
Update: Perhaps the marked isn't as sated as I thought - only one more invite to go...

PS I'm enjoying my new iPod as well...
Posted by: Carl Botterill on September 13, 2004 02:58 PMI, too, would like a GMail invite, please.
Posted by: Ralph Richard Cook on September 13, 2004 03:09 PMErm... what they said. I'm not exactly burning up for an invite (not so useful since I'm not permitted to access it from work), but if they were available I'd check it out just for fun, and since they're not I can't.
