Where does Google get all that Gmail space?

In case you were wondering where does Google get all that Gmail space, The Joy of tech came out with some possible explanations:

  • They've found a way to store email in a black hole.
  • They've tapped into that infinite space behind the fridge and under the rug.
  • Duh, it's just two iPod shuffles per account.
  • They googled for it.
  • They've got all the Gmail accounts hooked up to their Infinite Possibility Drive.
  • Mmmmm, imagine a Beowulf cluster of planet drives!

Firefox Extension for coComment!

I have put up the Firefox Extension for coComment! I and a few friends have been using it for a day now and it seems to work fine! Download coComment! for Firefox coComment! for Firefox allows you to coComment! from the right-click context menu and is of great help especially when commenting in a pop-up window where you can't access your bookmarks. Also, with this extension you will not have to move from the comment area to your bookmarks to click the 'bookmarklet' and then back, before you click the submit button on the blog. With this extension, you can directly move on to the submit button after writing the comment and merely hit the right click 'activating' coComment before submitting the post. Simple Fitts' law and it makes your browsing experience a great deal better and faster. Let me know what you think of it!
