A year after its launch, Google has doubled the capacity of its Gmail service and added new features.

Those lucky souls invited to have an account now get a whopping great 2GB of storage, with the ability to send up to 10MB of attachments in a single message with free POP access - with Google promising further increases in the pipeline.

“Since we introduced Gmail, people have had a lot of places to store e-mail, but some of our heavier users have been approaching their limits, and have been wondering what is going to happen,’ says Georges Harik, Gmail’s product management director. ‘So, starting today, we are going to give people more and more space continuously and indefinitely.”

“Our plan is to continue growing your storage beyond 2GB by giving more space as we are able to do so. We know that email will only become more important in people’s lives, and we want Gmail to keep up with our users and their needs.’”

For those who don’t have a gmail account yet, i have some invitations left!
