Over the last two weeks, I've been surprised to find that the most popular entry on my blog has been the one about Bernd's plan for using Gmail invites to bribe people to produce layout testcases. It has 35 comments, most of which are random people asking for accounts.
It probably seems incredible to most of the readership of this blog, who can easily lay their hands on a Gmail invite if they want one, but apparently there is a mass of people out there who are desperate to get on the Gmail train.
So, listen up, all those who want a Gmail invite! We are giving 1500 of them away. So go gettem.
