Gmail Capacities Continue To Increase

In 1978 & 1979. I was working on the Cyber M, with 16 Microporcessor Mother Board in a Shoe Box. The Memory chip then the Max size is 64K.

Now, with the present PC Minimum Memory size is half a GB. Let look at the email. The traditional wordprocessing base email is getting let appeal.

More email now are in HTML format. which require bigger memory spaces. Then when more people sending out the Voice mail & by the end of this year, there would be even more momery spaces is need. When the video mail is going for exposion. Therefore, with the Multi-Media Mail which encompass; Data; Voice; Music & Streamming Video, event a 2GB memory capacity can be just nothing special.

Therefore, as the trend moving forward, each vendor's would have to keep up with the trend then lagging behind.

Last Friday, Google revealed their intentions to increase the storage capacity of Gmail accounts, moving them past the 1-gigabyte mark.

Currently, the Gmail storage capacity resides at 2057 megabytes and it continues to increase. There has been no word from Google on how much longer the increase is going to occur. They have dropped hints that they would be increasing Gmail's capacity past the 2-gigabyte mark on their blog, which says, "to celebrate our birthday, we're giving all Gmail users another gigabyte of space, and then some."

With the counter continuing its increase, which is already past the 2-gig mark, users can only guess where it will stop.

With the Gmail increase well under way, one can imagine Google's competitor's to follow suit. However, Yahoo only recently announced their intentions to increase storage on their free accounts from 250MB to 1GB.

Microsoft's Hotmail, which still resides at a 250MB capacity, has yet to respond to Yahoo and Gmail's recent increases.
