or are they serious? from the front page at http://gmail.google.com :
A Google approach to math.
On the eve of Gmail's one-year birthday, our engineers were toiling
away furiously. Notes scribbled all over the walls. Complex
calculations on napkins and empty pizza boxes. Millions of M&Ms.
The result?... starting today, we're beginning the roll-out of our new
and top secret Infinity+1 storage plan. The key features are:
Write, don't worry.
You want to stop caring about storage. We want to keep giving you
more. Today, and beyond.
The gift that keeps on giving.
1111.756930 megabytes of storage (and counting) for every user.
(the above number is dynamically increasing right now...)
No complicated equations. No tough algorithms.
and from their "what's new" page:
G is for growth
Storage is an important part of email, but that doesn't mean you
should have to worry about it. To celebrate our one-year birthday,
we're giving everyone one more gigabyte. But why stop the party there?
Our plan is to continue growing your storage beyond 2GBs by giving you
more space as we are able. We know that email will only become more
important in people's lives, and we want Gmail to keep up with our
users and their needs. From Gmail, you can expect more.
neato. (if its not a joke...)
