Just curious as to why there seems to be a negative view of this post?
Hi Elijah,
I understand that you posted this with the best intentions, and that you feel annoyed at getting a negative reception, but I get offered a Gmail invite almost every day (this is not the only forum I regularly attend), and its getting old. I suspect that some monks view these posts as spam.
I'm not that annoyed with this post, because AFAIK it is the first gmail invite offered here on the monastery, but I hope this isn't going to get out of hand. We're here to discuss perl, after all. I would suggest the Chatterbox as a better place for these kind of messages.
You have to admire the success of this whole viral campaign, though.
Joost.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
