Good news for everyone struggling with the “paltry” 2.9Gb Google give us for Gmail - they’re upping the storage for “everyone”, but don’t appear to be letting on by how much:
In April 2005, we started increasing Gmail storage as part of our “Infinity+1″ storage plan. At that time, we realized we’d never reach infinity, but we promised to keep giving Gmail users more space as we were able. That said, a few of you are using Gmail so much that you’re running out of space, so to make good on our promise, today we’re announcing we are speeding up our counter and giving out more free storage.
I’m intrigued by people who’re near the storage limit with their accounts. I consider myself a pretty heavy email user and I’m only at around 400Mb. Are they backing up their entire photographic collection in their accounts? (From one of the comments on the original article, that might not be far from the truth!).
