    There is now an expanded program based on the idea from Richard Jones to use your Gmail account as network file storage.

    Here it is.

    Sounds interesting.

    So am I right in thinking that if youwere to set yourself up with multiple Gmail acounts, you could actually have multiple virtual drives then ?


    (in theory, 1000 :biggrin )

    Noticed the same thing a few times over the weekend, NoelG, but I was also experiencing other DNS issues, like no web pages, and not signing into MSN as well.


    If only I knew someone who worked at an ISP....:blink
