So I fancy a look at Google Inbox to see what I might or might not do with it but as so often, they are doing it with invites. As it happens I have been sent an invite for Ello, a new Twitter/Facebook style thing with its USP being a total lack of advertising.
Got an Inbox invite spare and fancy a look at [url= http://ello.co ]Ello[/url]? Email in profile and I will send you an Ello invite back.

How fitting...
I know, if I actually started to use Ello, where would I get my targeted advertising from! Hence the need to aggregate more email with Google #getmyfix
Can we ban the OP for using hashtags in a forum posting?
Awww, but I am using them in context of a shiny new (empty) social media revolution!

Edit- that said, I have been here long enough, I really should have felt the hammer before now #nottryinghardenough...
If you have any left I'd love an invite to Inbox but unfortunately only have my gratitude to offer
I got my inbox invite this morning and have been using it today. It's very nice and a vast improvement on the gmail app/web. I really like the bundles and reminders and that attachments are previewed.
I was hoping I'd get some invites to hand out, but nothing as yet.
If anyone is throwing out Inbox invites, could you send me one please? email in profile.

Yes an inbox invite would be lovely here to - downloaded the app last night only to find out you've gotta be in with the cool kids to use it...
Would someone please explain this whole invite system to me?
Well, I didn't have any Inbox invites a couple of days ago so just signed up on the Inbox website and got in about 24 hours later, so that is worth a pop. Waiting on a couple of people getting back to me as you only seem to get 3 invites and used one already.
muggomagic, if you go to send an email one of the choices is to send an invite, you sure you haven't got any?
ohno... Seems a popular way to soft launch a service and build a bit of a buzz around a product. I guess you are more likely to have people actually use it if they are inviting mates rather than totally random folk. Until someone inevitably posts it on a forum or the like:-)
FWIW Inbox doors seem a decent way of dealing with email but I guess you need to play with it to decide if you want it or not. Still not as good as Google Wave was, ahh, still miss the Wave...
I got an invite from Google a few weeks ago from Google. About a week before that I just emailed them, at the address in DezB's post above, saying "Hi, Inbox looks really interesting, please can I have an invite?" or words to that effect. Did the trick.
cool. But you don't need to bumlick for the next 10 mins 😉
