GMail will reach 3 Gig on Jan 1st, 06

Wednesday 6 April 2005 @ 3:22 am

According to the source, GMail space is increasing in the pace of 24,912 seconds for 1 Meg.

So, i did a calculation myself as well.

Target Milestone = 2075MB
The Space When I Wrote This = 2061.55 MB (at 3.00am, April 6th, 05)
Difference = 2075 – 2061.55 = 13.45 MB

So,
Time Needed To Reach 2075MB
= 24,912 sec x 13.45 MB
= 335066.4 sec
= 93 hrs (335066.4/3600)
= 3.87 days (So, it’s around 3 days and 21 hrs)

So, we in Malaysia will have 2075 MB of GMail space on Sunday, April 10th 2005, 00:00:00 (GMT+8).

As compared to what original author have said, we will get 2075MB on on Saturday, April 9th 2005, 16:00:00 (GMT). It’s absolutely true, because Malaysia is in GMT+8, so we have to add 8 hrs.

All in all, if the concept of 1 Meg needs 24,912 seconds to grow, then it’s no doubt, on Sunday, January 1st 2006, 17:00:00 (GMT+8), we all here wil have 3Gig GMail space !!

Note: This calculation makes sense, if and only if, we need 24,912 seconds to have 1 more Meg of GMail space. :)
