They could at least tell you which account has been signed up. Everything's so easy with 1-click, but now that I have multiple accounts signed in at the same time, I have no idea which one requested the invite and I'm going to have to continue to watch _all_ my inboxes... if it has an Android part, which it better, I sure hope I've linked the right account to the invite so that the device can download the app.

grumble grumble

It actually looks cool though.

This and all those other places offering a Google Oauth option prevents me from logging in to multiple accounts on my main browser (Chrome). Although if you do a Google Oauth, it will let you select which email you want to use. I hardly use anything else apart from my personal Apps account, and hence it makes sense to have only a single login on your main browser.

If you set up multiple Chrome users (Settings > Add New User), you can log into multiple google accounts at once.

You would hope -- I noticed the same issue. I ended up just opening an incognito window and logging into my main account that I use for e-mail and requested an invite there. Hopefully that'll make sure at least something lands into an inbox I check.

I'm not going to complain though, I just want to try it out!

Haha... I did exactly the same thing. After, I realized it was so easy that it's really dumb to complain about it.
