If you have a Gmail account, you might want to take a look at some of the new Labs they’ve released over the past few days.  To get to the labs just log into your Gmail account, and look for the link in the top right hand corner that says New Labs.  Click this to see some of the neat things that Google offers the users of Gmail. 

Here are a few examples:

  1. Ever included Bob (your boss) instead of Bob (your friend) on an email by accident? Oops! Turn on “Got the wrong Bob?” and Gmail will check if you meant to include Bob Smith rather than Bob Jones based on the groups of people you email most often.
  2. Oops, hit “Send” too soon? Give yourself a grace period of a few seconds to cancel sending, then edit your message before sending again. Turn it on from the Labs tab under Settings.
  3. Make Gmail work even when you’re not connected to the internet. Turn on offline access from the Labs tab under Settings.

These are just a few as well as the addition of Themes, Tasks & other goodies.  If you don’t have a Gmail account, now might be the time.  Read all my other stories about Gmail here, or just use the handy dandy search in the top right.
