Welcome to Gmail
I reckon that the real reason behind Google's Gmail is not to make some money by serving some focused ads. I think they have a greater plan...I think they are trying to map out a universal social network. Think about it...they started offering a gigabyte of storage enticed thousands of people away from other mail services. The fact that you get to "invite" 7 friends every now and then (and then they get to invite some more friends, etc). Imagine Google now has this huge database mapping out who my friends are and who their friends are...they probably have this huge screen in the Googleplex with a world map showing all the links...

Not only that, but they also own orkut.com, so they know who our friends are through that. That they know what our interests are from google search, and they know our consuming behaviour through froogle and google ads. And they also know our secrets that we are only willing to reveal under anonymity through google-owned blogger.com
Scary!
Welcome to the newest trend in Marketing bro... Viral MArketing... okay not a very new trend... but I think Google , just mastered one of the very rarely used marketing tactics in viral marketing.. relationship marketing.
Guys were doing it for a long time , smaller guys were doing to invite social networks to exclusive parties ,etc... remmeber the Legendary Lucky Strike Parties in SA... Same thing.
and oh yeah.. be afraid, be very afraid.
the amount of info these people have is dangerous.
