We’ve been wanting this feature for ages, so it’s good to see Goggle on the case and adding the ability to include rich text signatures in GMail.
We’re always up for a hefty info-graphic or two, and the folks at flowtown have helpfully knocked out a page-filling monster all about our attitudes to spam.
We’ve been waiting for this one for ages.
From today, Gmail users looking to include files with their email messages won’t have to faff about with all that “Attach a file/locate the files/manually add them” malarkey any more.
We’re not getting any emails pushed through to our iPhone at the moment (we’re in the UK on the o2 network) and a quick look on Twitter shows that other people seem to be suffering the same problem.
We’ve been getting delays in mails arriving all day – at the moment our GMail account has at least 15 emails dating back three hours that are yet to turn up on the iPhone.
Google has had a tidy up in its GMail Labs inventory, promoting some experimental features to full products while telling others they’re simply not good enough.
With phising attacks on the rise, and ne’er do wells dreaming up ever more cunning ways to persuade people to perilously part with their precious personal data, the folks at loginhelper have whipped up a handy explanatory ‘flow chart.’
With disgruntlement hitting critical levels after hideous security flaws were uncovered in Google’s new Buzz service, the company has added swiftly to repair the damage.
Acknowledging users’ concerns about their contacts being made public without their knowledge, the lack of control over who could follow them and the inability to block people without public profiles, Google has published up a lengthy blog post explaining the changes they’ve implemented:
We love trying out new stuff from Google, and excitedly signed up to their new Twitter/Facebook mash-up, Google Buzz.
To get you up and running fast, Buzz automatically sets you up with followers and people to follow, and these are chosen by who you email and chat with most using Gmail.
Google may have their sticky fingers in just about every online pie, but there’s one area where their influence has resolutely failed to have any impact: social networking.
They may own Orkut and OpenSocial, but they’re barely a molehill on the social networking horizon compared to the big boys like Facebook or Twitter, so Google have devised a cunning plan.
Mozilla Thunderbird, the free email client produced by the makers of the Firefox browser, has recently undergone some important revisions, and is now available as Thunderbird 3.0 RC1.
RC stands for Release Candidate, meaning that this version of Thunderbird 3 is designed for testing, and might still have a few bugs, so don’t install it in production environments.
I’ve been using Thunderbird 3 in its various Beta iterations for a while, and have now updated to RC1, and I believe that this latest version of the popular email client is a considerable improvement over its predecessors.
