Gmail As A Storage Device
In case you haven't seen this on the other 2,427 (or so) blogs that have linked to it, here you go. This is so dang cool, and I wish I had Linux and could use it: GmailFS provides a mountable Linux filesystem which uses your Gmail account as its storage medium. GmailFS is a Python application and uses the FUSE userland filesystem infrastructure to help provide the filesystem, and libgmail to communicate with Gmail.
GmailFS supports most file operations such as read, write, open, close, stat, symlink, link, unlink, truncate and rename. This means that you can use all your favourite unix command line tools to operate on files stored on Gmail (e.g. cp, ls, mv, rm, ln, grep etc. etc.). How long do you think until they shut this down like they have other projects? Link via kottke.

Amir said on 10/18/04 @ 06:39 AM: In respond to Jesse, if you have yahoo.com, made it very easy to dump the Spam. Click on and Click on empty, is done. I deleted over 350 bulk.
I have no comment on GmailFS, I have yahoo and AOL @ both are OK.
