Ok, so I'm emailing my good friend an email I promised her, and then I see a notification that I got an email from her pop up on MSN messenger. I think "neato, more stuff I can respond to" and I click to open it. And it fails to open. At first I think my internet is just being stupid, then I realize I can go to any other website I want to, just not hotmail. Outlook doesn't work either. So now I'm stuck sitting here with this email not wanting to send it and lose it and incredibly frustrated that I can't see the email she sent me and incredibly pissed off that I can't access my stupid Hotmail account! Aarrgghh!!! Of all the nights to fail me, Hotmail has to choose the one where I have the least amount of patience.

I can't stand hotmail, but it's so delightfully free, gmail would be nice but it requires some crazy cell phone text messaging thing to activate, but I took a morale stance against cell phones, when I want to talk to someone I walk 15 miles in the snow to get to there, and if I had something to say it had better have been important because if I forget it along the way there's going to be trouble...

Oh right your problem... I have no idea, try calling her.

[Confused]

I don't think that is true.

It is true. Either that or an invite from somebody who already has gmail.

I signed up for Gmail a couple of years ago, and I certainly did not have to use any kind of phone to set up an account.

Oh--just seeing Amanecer's email now. I'll send you an invite if you want one, dante . . . just let me know.

Someone was offering gmail invites here on Hatrack back some time ago, iirc.

Oh! That sounds much easier, how would the invite sending work?

Just sent you a (spelling-challenged) email to [your] account on this site. Email me back and once I have your address, I can send the invite to it.

Since everyone has exhibited so much caring, I figured I would inform you all that Hotmail has resumed working. It seriously made me mad though, because I think it was just my account. I could get into my parents fine, but not into mine. I have a gmail account ... I'm thinking I might make the switch. Do Gmail and Outlook work together at all?
