"100GB of free cloud storage ... with a catch
Zoolz offers 'cold' storage service with a lot of free space

Network World - A variety of cloud services offer free storage to get users signed up and on a path to become paying customers. Normally these free offers start at 2GB and range on up to maybe 10GB.

Zoolz, a new cloud storage services from online backup firm Genie9, is going beyond that and offering 100GB of free storage for a lifetime to the first 1 million users of its cloud-based service.

Sound too good to be true? Well there is a catch: Zoolz uses Amazon Web Services' Glacier, which is a "cold storage" service, meaning that files uploaded to Zoolz's cloud are not immediately retrievable. Users get an email within three to five hours of requesting the file alerting them that it is ready to be downloaded from the cloud.

Zoolz also offers a premium offering which does not use cold storage and provides instant access to cloud-based files. Zoolz uses Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3) for that service, which starts at $20 per year for 100GB of storage."

VERY mixed karma... :s

From Gmail Help:

Gmail doesn't recognize dots as characters within usernames, you can add or remove the dots from a Gmail address without changing the actual destination address; they'll all go to your inbox, and only yours. In short:

homerjsimpson@gmail.com = hom.er.j.sim.ps.on@gmail.com
homerjsimpson@gmail.com = HOMERJSIMPSON@gmail.com
homerjsimpson@gmail.com = Homer.J.Simpson@gmail.com

All these addresses belong to the same person. You can see this if you try to sign in with your username, but adding or removing a dot from it. You'll still go to your account.

Correct me if I'm wrong ;p

(my last 100GB offer was a total bust - this should be better ;)

Want 100GB Of Free Cloud-Based Storage?

FROM: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/want-100gb-free-cloud-based-storage.htm, which leads to: http://www.zoolz.com/

Updated 29. March 2013 - 0:33 by rob.schifreen

A new player in the cloud storage market is offering 100 GB of space to the first million people to sign up to its service.  To sign up, just head to www.zoolz.com and follow the instructions.  However, there's clearly a waiting list for the service, so you won't get your free space right away. 

Is it any good?  Will the service work properly?  We don't know yet.  But it seems sensible to sign up now, just in case it does turn out to be excellent.  You have nothing to lose.  Especially if you sign up with a non-critical email address rather than your primary one.

I'm number 64716 in the queue, apparently.  If/when my account gets activated I'll let you know.  Meanwhile, if you celebrate such things, or if you merely use it as an opportunity for a rest, have a good Easter.  I'll be back on Tuesday.

 
EDIT: Latest stats...
76641 People in front of you
36 People behind you

Total amount of accounts given away: 1,000,000

So... Karma :)
