How To Get Rid Of Your Gmail Invites Box [Update]

    08:40 on July 3, 2008

Back in the day, invitations to Gmail were so scarce and popular that people would pay for them. Today, the Gmail invite window is just a nuisance. As it turns out, if you wish to be rid of said framed box, simply give away all your invites. Personally, I just invited myself 100 times over; makes one feel all welcome.

Update: Alas, things aren’t so simple. Within a week you’re given 50 new invites. It seems you need the Better Gmail 2 Firefox extension to truly hide the box.

    Joen,

    Now that’s kind of obvious isn’t it? Did that really warrant a post? :)

    As it turns out, I should’ve listened more closely to the first law. As it turns out, if you spend all your invites, you get 50 fresh ones within a week. Sigh.
