From time to time, in order to improve Google Gulp's usefulness for our users, Google Gulp will send packets of data related to your usage of this product from a wireless transmitter embedded in the base of your Google Gulp bottle to the GulpPlex™, a heavily guarded, massively parallel server farm whose location is known only to Eric Schmidt, who carries its GPS coordinates on a 64-bit-encrypted smart card locked in a stainless-steel briefcase handcuffed to his right wrist. No personally identifiable information of any kind related to your consumption of Google Gulp or any other current or future Google Foods product will ever be given, sold, bartered, auctioned off, tossed into a late-night poker pot, or otherwise transferred in any way to any untrustworthy third party, ever, we swear.
It's just part of their Infinity+1 storage plan. Seriously, the storage limit is mostly just a marketing gimmick; what it really means is "more space than you can handle!". They'll just keep revising the limit upwards, realizing that hardly anybody will use that much space so they don't actually need to have that much storage.observer_20000 wrote:It seems that every time I go to check my mail that Gmail has added more space.

I think there is (or ought to be) some universal law of computing - you'll always need more space even if you don't think you will. Look at hard drives - who can honestly say that during the era of 120MB hard drives they ever thought it possible for them to fill up a 120GB one?Bill Gates wrote:640K of memory should be enough for anybody.
