GMail Drive
Something pretty darn cool..
Thursday, March 3, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Those GMail accounts have a lot of disk space available to them eh?
Well here's a program that lets you turn your Gmail account into a virtual drive that shows up in My Computer. It's pretty darn cool. Using it right now.

When the link is broken by gmail, does that mean that the files stored in gmail drive are lost until we can find an update to the program mentioned or we can still access the files from gmail account?

Just log into your Gmail account and there they are.
Sadly, this isn't working this time around for me. Worked like a charm in the past, but not lately.

Looks like I'm going to have to uninstall this. It wreaks havoc with ACDSee, often logging on to sync with Gmail, delaying things, screwing up focus, etc.

Well... Tried to download it for the kids to use for their gmail account. All I can get is HTTP 1.1... And I don't have permission to download the file. Good thing I saved it

That doesn't work for me. I can't go over 10mb files. Anyone know a solution to this problem other than manually breaking up files?

| 2) You can have larger files. It splits them up for you when it uploads. |

As you asked roadrunnerm - I remember coming across this once, so I found it again for you.
I can't vouch for it and it seems a bit much unless you're already geared up - but here's a link to :-

gmail is cool due to the interface it posesses(even though more color/"skins" would be nice) and the capacity. furthermore, the spam blocker is really nice(compared to hotmail and others). the actual invite system is good cuz it interests ppl who want a nice capacity in their inbox insted of the 2/200 megs of hotmail.
ps: have lots of gmail invites. email me at alexdonzelgmailcom

Can't you jsut install it on both systems and use it that way?
I don't think I understand the question exactly... The computers joined together? More details please.
