Matt is the bomb. He hooked me up with a lovely little Gmail account to call my own.
In the process of signing up, my initial choice of usernames was not available. I knew “Christine” would be taken, but it is always worth a shot, right? Gmail is nice enough to offer you alternatives though. Here is what it offered me:
christine.tremoulet
ctremoulet
tremoulet
tremouletster
What?!?? Tremouletster? WTF? Uhm, yeah. I passed on that one. I went with bigpinkcookie, because it’s easy to remember. Get down with the BPC…
20 replies on “The “G” Stands for Goooood…”
haha, my friend had the same thing happen to her. Her name Shara and it made it into Sharaster.
😀
When was the ‘ster thing ever cool? I kinda remember something from the early ’90s SNL, but damn. I say you made the right choice!
-H
That’s funny. Tremoulet-ster. Ha! I’m so calling you that. 😉
i’ve got invites to gmail to give away – woulda given you one if i’d known. Anyone else want one?
they do that with all the names because they did that with mine… waterlilyster.
i couldn’t get waterlily, though… it was a huge bummer. i just got chattykathy1974 because obviously chattykathy was taken, too.
too funny, what with going off to argentina next month, I’ve been wondering if anyone would send me an invite… hotmail just doesn’t do the trick and I get way too much daily sends in my regular mail… here’s to gmail *holds up feigned glass for ca-chinking!*
feel free to share the invites if/when you get ’em! *wink*
I wonder what kind of ‘ster it would make me!?
Congratulations Christine! 🙂
Yeah, “Christina” was taken too. :\
I’ve noticed a trend, in that most people I know that have gmail accounts, used the main part of their domain name, as their username. (Yes, even I did)… I think it’s pretty cool. 🙂
I got a gmail account two days ago and I was so excited. I ran around telling everyone. Finally someone asked, “What is it? Why is it so cool?” and I realized I had no idea. Yet.
Almost as good as EZKym. 🙂
Heeeeyyyy… does that mean YOU have invites to give away now?? 😉 😉
Gmail invites seem to be getting more frequent, but none have come my way yet! 🙁 What’s up w/ Matt’s site anyway I wonder… is it really down for good? Yikes!
We love your url the way it is! Don’t go changin is ringing in my head 🙂
So, I think this answers my other question: it’s Tremoulet now? Not Selleck Tremoulet? Or all New Agey: Semoulet (which sounds like Semolina, and that’s just wrong ;))
*goes back to see if “busymomster” is already taken*
Speaking of such things, isn’t it time you updated your Mini-Me profile, which still says “Engaged”?
How can I get the “change skin” option for my own site? That’s awesome!!! You’re super cool! I wanna be just like you!!!

I would ask why Christine’s most fanatic lurker (me) doesn’t have an invite, but then I realized that Christine gives unlimited email forwards to her clients… 😉
I dunno, what the heck IS so cool about getting a GMail account?
I actually don’t have invites yet. It seems that you don’t get them right away, and then it is maybe based on use? Not sure, but when I have invites, Jenn and Ben (but not Benifer!) will be the first to know.
As for the cool factor … well, I haven’t used it enough yet to actually answer that question either.
I got an invite, and I was offered *Murphyster* as a choice.
I don’t think so. I went for *catmommy*, which, surprisingly, was NOT taken. I already knew that I had a snowball’s chance in hell of getting *Christine*
So, *catmommy* I am. I don’t mind at all!
GMail
I think I must be the only person in the entire world not to get a GMail invite. So far every blogger and their family have been talking about the wonders of GMail 🙂 At first I wondered why. I…
