New Gmail
I just logged into Gmail to find that things are changed – not much, but changed just the same. Things look a bit cleaner and I love that my contacts are now at the top of the screen (before they were below my ton of labels). I’m also checking out the changes to contacts which [...]
New Gmail Feature
Today I was compiling an email and saw a new link next to the attach link: If you click this new ‘Invitation’ link it opens a window to create and invite people to a Google Calendar event. Very cool! [update] More from ReadWriteWeb. [/update]
Switch to Gmail
Still on Hotmail? Or worse – AOL mail? Google has made it so that you can easily switch to Gmail: Since launching back in 2004, Gmail has set the gold standard for webmail clients, offering a large amount of storage and a highly usable interface, free of charge. But for many people it has remained [...]
New Gmail Feature – Merge Contacts
I just read about this great new feature for Gmail that lets you select multiple contacts and merge them into one – I could really use this to clean up my contacts – but for some reason I can’t get my contacts page to load in Firefox. Whenever I click on Contacts I get this [...]
Gmail Multiple Inboxes
The title I think is a little misleading – but this new feature from Google Labs is awesome!! When I first read this, I thought I could read multiple Gmail accounts in one window – but what it really means is that I have have multiple searches run right in my inbox screen. The new [...]
Create Doc from Gmail
Pretty soon Google is going to have to organize their Gmail Labs page better. There was so much on there I didn’t know about. Today I added the ability to move boxes around on the right (something I’ve been dying for) and the ability to export an email thread as a Google Document. I could [...]
Integrated Gmail Firefox Add-on
I read about this neat sounding add-on for Firefox on Lifehacker – but unfortunately it’s not ready for prime time. Allows you to make the Inbox Collapsible and loads your choice of Google Calendar, Reader, Notebook, Groups, etc… plus Custom URLs and Google Gadgets seamlessly into the gmail interface. Works w/Google Apps Accounts and GMail [...]
Addicted or Workaholics?
Janie posted a poll a little while ago to find out about email habits of library workers. I filled it out and I can tell you that I was checking work email on my honeymoon and so checking it on weekends is no big deal to me Janie has posted her results and included this [...]
MarkMail: Mailing List Search
Last year I bookmarked MarkMail and then promptly forgot about it. Today I was searching for someone’s email address and was brought back to MarkMail – wow has it grown!! Searching 4,310 lists and 22,872,030 messages. First list started in November 1992. There are 2,898 active lists, recently accumulating 5,907 messages per day. Basically, MarkMail [...]
