AlienCamel has gone the final step and is now offering its users unlimited storage. By removing limits on space, users now have a simple, low-cost service which will keep their emails safe, secure and backed up forever. AlienCamel has implemented the most sophisticated anti-spam filtering and email-virus-blocking technology over the last 18 months.

Google Giveaway

Google Giveaway 07/16/2004 11:56 AM

Earlier this week, Google announced they were purchasing Picasa, the excellent photo organization program. Well, now they're giving it away. If you are still looking for a good (and free) way to organize your pile of digital photos go get it. It has a great interface and does most of what Photoshop Album does. Actually, looking at the interface makes me wonder how this is not an OS X app.

I see a couple of things happening here. First, Google will probably tie this into the next version of blogger which they also own. No doubt posting to your blogger account will be a standard option in the next version of Picasa. Secondly, they are using that same user base to increase sales of the next version of Picasa which I believe is already under development. Works for drug dealers. Give em' a little for free and wait for them to pay when they want more.

Go give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

Google Email? Would You Trade Off Ads
For Better Email Search? 01/17/2004 10:47 PM
The big discussion that I've been having with a few different people over the last few weeks is whether or not Google would get into the email business - and, if so, how? To me, it seems like an obvious extension of their technology and business model - but not everyone agrees. However, the rumors are getting louder and louder that Google is developing an email product. The question is whether they'll be offering an entire "Google Email" system, or if they're just working on a version of their AdSense offering that would work within email (generating contextual ads based on the content of the email). Some people I've spoken to about it thought that people would freak out if they thought Google was reading their email to do its contextualization magic - which could be true. The question is how many people will freak out - and will plenty of others be more than willing to welcome the Google contextualization engine into their inbox, in exchange for the ability to actually "Google your email"? Many people always seem to want the ability to better search through their own email. I could see a certain willingness from many people to let Google place ads in their email in exchange for the ability to better search through all the email. If Google could figure out a good anti-spam solution, as well, it could be a real hit.

Yahoo upgrades email storage to 1GB

Yahoo upgrades email storage to 1GB 03/23/2005 02:23 AM
Yahoo plans to once again raise its free email storage, this time to 1GB. The rise in email storage matches the same email storage offered by search rival Google. The storage change is said to begin in late April for Yahoo's free email users, whose current storage mark is set to 250MB. Yahoo said that it will take about two weeks for their free email users to see the difference.

Yahoo's storage boost comes only one week after Google began giving Gmail accounts to random visitors of its homepage. The giving of random Gmail accounts has raised speculation of Google possibly allowing Gmail accounts available to the public on April 1st, one year after Gmail's beta launch. Yahoo's vice president of communications products, Brad Garlinghouse, said in an interview that the storage upgrade is not a response to Google's latest actions.

Yahoo will also offer anti-virus scanning provided by Symantec.

The only real surprise here is that it took Yahoo! this long to figure out they need to increase the amount of storage they offered their webmail users following Google's 1 gig Gmail announcement over a month ago. They're now offering 100 megs for free, and paid users get "virtually unlimited storage" - but no details are given on just how "virtual" those non-limits are. Either way, they're going to have a tough time keeping up with Gmail.

Now this is getting really fun.

Despite the rumors that Google was going to play host to the Wikipedia - it looks like Yahoo beat them to a deal to integrate hooks into the Wikipedia - from Yahoo search.

Wouldn't it be cool is BOTH deals came through?

Google, the search engine company, won a federal court battle against Geico, the insurance company, today that allows the search engine to sell online advertisements tied to keywords that are also trademarked company names. Geico claimed that Google should not be allowed to display advertisements for rival insurance companies when the Geico name is used as a search keyword. U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema disagreed.

Will Advertisers Sue Google To See Your
Email? 06/14/2004 02:50 PM
The misplaced hype over Gmail's potential legal problems for putting up contextual ads in your email seems to have thankfully died down. However, Mark Rasch, over at Security Focus is trying to dig it back up again with a somewhat more thoughtful piece about whether or not Gmail breaks existing laws by scanning emails without the permission of the sender as well. It seems like a stretch - and about the best that can be said is that some of the wording of older laws may need to be adjusted to take into account the concept of email. Otherwise, it doesn't seem like there's a real problem here. However, as an aside, he does bring up an interesting (if unlikely) possibility. What if an advertiser feels that Google is lying about inserting their ads, or believes that Google is inserting competitor's ads instead? Could they then subpoena your emails in order to prove the point? This would, obviously, violate your privacy through no action of your own doing. However, this seems like a huge stretch. First, I'm sure that Google's contract makes it clear that they're not required to put in an ad in all circumstances, so there would be little legal recourse for a company. Second, since the ads are placed on the fly, there's no specific reason why anyone's email should be subpoenaed. The ads are not associated with the email itself - but that particular viewing of the email. So, gaining access to the emails won't show the same ads that were originally placed and will do nothing to prove the legal case one way or the other.
