Nice idea.
Terrible name.
Instead of conveying that it’s a gmail/music convergence, Gookbox sounds like the derogatory slang that an idiot would make for a Korean gal’s p*ssy.
Now that just ain’t right.

MJ: yeah, i dont quite know what the agenda was there or if the “peabrainstormers” forgot just a few years of history from the Korean and Viet Wars . When i was with the ROK marines they taught me to laugh at being referred to that perjorative term the US GI thought of as an insult ,as I was informed meant either “people” or “country” as in mee-gook or han-gook .that term not out of meaness still would rile things up. but then i write comments too long. that was long ago. i still get pissed off when people dont consider the angles or implications of thier terms. But then we got fired on a lot by forward patrols of US GIs. gurrrr. your comment carries it furthur. How about calling it “honkeybox” not mean, country and western reference. ha. Honkeytonk and music box melded. sorry this is soo long. Ray

If you rename you .mp3 etc files to .jpg you can upload them to flickr and recall the “original-size” files from some other machine and name them back. Gmail, fine, but flickr is probably faster.
