Samuel Tardieu @ rfc1149.net

Please guess my private gmail address

,

Let’s assume that:

  • you want to chat with me;
  • you only have my publicly available email address (`sam@rfc1149.net`);
  • you suspect that I also have a gmail account linked to the `sam@rfc1149.net` address;
  • you want to find it so that you can initiate a chat.

It is easy. Create a new Google Site, and enter the Site settings/Sharing tab. Add my name as a viewer and click Invite these people.

Then select Skip sending invitation so that I am not notified.

My sam@rfc1149.net email address was associated with my gmail account: you got it, you can start chatting even if I never intended you to get access to my gmail address. Congratulations!
