Just thought some of you may be interested in 1 terabyte of e-mail storage with the ability to send 500 meg attachments. I don't like the site too well, and according to some there privacy policy isn't up to snuff, but with all that space why not?

Go here to sign up. http://hriders.com/create_account.cfm

There is no way that any company is willing to part with $500's worth of drive space for free. They may say they have 1TB for you, but in all likelyhood, you'll be sharing that 1TB with hundreds, if not thousands of others signed up for the service.

Wow talk about a massive amount of space and the attachment of 500MB's very much worth it indeed. Holy christ though talk about an easy way to share those home family videos espcially with xmas time comming up and all.

Defineately cant beat a TB of free storage crazy.

I'd have to wonder if the wonderboy isnt correct it dose surely sound like it is too good to be true.

I posted this topic before; yes, i think that you'll eventually be sharing all that space -> which company, not even microsoft, is willing to give anyone free tb email?

The company founder says he has more than enough resources to fund the servers and bandwidth, it is not primarily an e-mail company.

Info about the company http://www.hriders.com/about-us.cfm also seems they have some sponsers with deep pockets (kawasaki being one of them) helping to fund the 1TB e-mail service. Plus they have a revenue stream from classified ads as well.

Hmm you never know really if the companies can drop millions on a superbowl commercial a terabyte email is just as attractive for attention to many 500bux here 500bux there sure beats the costing of advertisement and marketing and it is marketed year round 24/7 not just for 1 minute.

I'll wait around and see what happens definately a good market pitch.

It sounds and smells like bullshit to me. I mean, let's face it -- how often would anyone fill half of that up ? Who can prove this sites' claims ?

The owner said the first person to fill their terabyte with legitimate mail/files etc will receive their own petabyte e-mail server with a dedicated line. now that is one hell of a pitch. (of course that reeks of bs)

I think this guy knows more about motorcycles than he does the internet and computers.
