I suppose its stale news now. But then again, it is something that has to be mentioned here.
In fear of the rising popularity of the invite-only GMail, (or so I think), Yahoo mail has relaunched itself with a hundred MB of space.
100 MB of mail account, Baby.

The new Yahoo mail. Here, it shows
the percentage usage of my account.

And it has a new look much akin to GMail, though I miss the Keyboard Shortcuts from GMail. And of course, competing with the 1000MB offered by Gmail is no mean task.
It got me thinking though. I mean, now, in Gmail, I am using only 1 MB. Thats .1% of the total allocated space. And even, I believe, on an average usage, I will end up using only 100 MB. And Yahoo has offered exactly that. Makes business sense common sense. (The pic above shows my usage to be just about 3%. It was 48% before with 6 MB of space).
I wonder what premium account users get?. 1 GB? The answer to that is 2 GB. (Wow)
Reminds me. I still have 3 more invites for Gmail. Any takers for one of them. I plan to auction the other two at gmailswap.
