Google ups storage for Gmail, Google Apps users

Gmail users running short on storage are getting a reprieve starting today. The company has announced they’ll be increasing the speed in which they’ve been adding storage to their popular e-mail service, along with bumps to Google Apps users.

The storage counter had been running on the normal Gmail’s start page, which is nearing the 3 GB mark bit by bit–and now, it’s doing it just a little bit faster. Meanwhile, Google Apps users are getting a slightly better end of the deal. Standard and Educational users are getting a size match with Gmail’s offerings, 3GB, while the Premier gets an extra 15GB, bringing their cap to 25GB.
