Google Project Fi, @gmail.com Only

The “network of networks” approach of Google Project Fi is an interesting move. I like the idea of being able to leverage multiple networks, in this case Sprint, T-Mobile, and wifi connections.

Any chance Google Fiber cities will see Google wifi access points that specifically target Project Fi users?

I clicked on “request invite”, which provided this disappointing response:

google-fi-gmail

For now, Project Fi is available only for accounts with an @gmail.com address

Just in case you weren’t sure that non-@gmail.com accounts are second class Google citizens.

Combine this with the pain Slack is having with multiple user accounts and I wonder if user management is the next level up on scaling challenges.
