Gmail is now open for sign-ups
2007 February 16
Hooray! Gmail is now open for public sign-up to internet users here in the Philippines. I just found out about this a while as I was about to check my original Gmail account. I noticed a new layout in the home page and suspicions that something new is in offer and indeed it is a good offer. Gmail for everyone! 
Though I still have lots of Gmail invites, it’s much better now that people could sign-up for their very own GMail account instead of waiting for others. How can I prove this?
Here’s a screencap that it says it all. 
Now that Gmail is open for public sign-ups, I wonder how the other e-mail service providers would react?
Over 2GB (and still growing) of storage, a cool and powerful search function, labeling and chatting all for free!

@ jepoy: Yes, but now it’s available in full version not just in SMS. Gmail for everyone!

GMAIL has been available in the Philippines since December 2005 via SMS registration
They sold Gmail invites in eBay back then?! Wow, never knew about that. I got my first Gmail invite when I accidentally clicked on an ad in Google search result.
Hope everyone else gets their Gmail.
Yeah! It’s a good thing that they have already opened it for sign-up. Some people used to take advantage of its beta status that they sell invitations on eBay.
Gmail was released in the year 2003 right?
I guess they could cut the counters off the invitation box on the sidebar now as it makes no sense anymore. I still have 97 invites left on my second GMail account (I haven’t checked my first one recently) though I have been using GMail For Your Domain since I was accepted as a beta tester.
