A networking idea for FIRST teams through GMAIL

[rufu5]

OK, my major e-mail address is now my gmail address. Now I was sitting back and thinking: "Man, this gmail thing is sweet, 2gbs of storage, any @gmail.com that you want ..." (and he did speak at nationals )

And then it hit me!

Have you ever been sitting back and said: "Man I want to get in touch with team xxxx, but I just don't know what e-mail to use, which person I need to talk to, and their website is down or doesn't have a contact list!"

Well I have a solution!

Say you want to get in contact with the FIRST team 447 (my team, lol)

447.FIRST@gmail.com

every team, simply takes 5 minutes and makes a (team number)(period)FIRST@gmail.com

and it goes on for FLL and VEX too xxxx.FLL@gmail.com xxxx.VEX@gmail.com

team leaders can use the AMAZING gmail notifier

(I had already made 447.FIRST, thats why i said that and not 447.FRC)

IF ANYONE WANTS AN INVITE, SO THEY CAN MAKE THEIR TEAM A GMAIL ACCOUNT, just post here (to move this up, so more people can see it) and send me an e-mail at 447.FIRST@gmail.com
