Invitations for Mailplane – first come, first served, for free

I’ve been test­ing a new Mac appli­ca­tion called Mailplane this week. I first read about this app on Sil­ver Mac.

I have sev­eral Gmail accounts, includ­ing some from my Google Apps domains . Check­ing each account requires repeated cycles of sign­ing in because Gmail can only dis­play a sin­gle account in a browser at any one time.

I used to keep Safari and Fire­fox open so I could see my two main Gmail accounts.

But I really don’t like Safari much.

Mailplane is only in beta, but it really works well. Even if you only have a sin­gle Gmail account, Mailplane is worth­while. It’s a cus­tomized web browser that han­dles your Gmail. Using Mailplane is bet­ter than check­ing Gmail with Out­look or another POP mail reader, as Mailplane is access­ing Gmail as a web service.

I’ve got five invi­ta­tions to try Mailplane. The first five peo­ple who post a com­ment and request an invite, and who link back to this blog, will get the invites.

I do use reCAPTCHA to help keep the spam­mers away from the com­ments. Some­times the images are a bit fuzzy. Just click the arrow icon in the reCAPTCHA box to get a dif­fer­ent set of images.

Remem­ber, it’s a Mac app, so Win­dows users will get no love from Mailplane.
