Gmail with 13 GB space by the end of 2007

Web emails are increasing their space day by day. Earlier Gmail was the first to provide space counted in Gigabytes. At present, Hotmail is providing 5GB and might be the largest space provider for free. However, Gmail has revised its space increasing rate from 4 bytes per second to 1.5KB per second (October 19, 2007). If this rate continues, then it will overcome Hotmail before the end of this month. Furthermore, Gmail will be the largest free space provider as the space will be around 13 GB by the end of 2007.

Calculation for the overcome of 5GB space:
Present Gmail space is about 3816 MB i.e 3.73GB and to have 5GB, it needs extra 1.273GB i.e., 13352566.68KB.

1.5 KB = 1 second
1 KB = 1/1.5 second
13352566.68KB = (1/1.5)* 13352566.68 seconds = 890171.12 sec = 14836 mins = 247.269 hours = 10.3 days.

Space at the end of this year:
72 days left to complete the year.
72 days = 6220800 second
1 sec = 1.5 Kb
6220800 sec = 9331200 Kb = 9112.5 Mb
Current space is 3820 Mb plus 911.5 Mb = 12932.5 Mb
