WOW 29

WOW 29 - Google Labs (wrt GMail)

Good Afternoon Friends,
A few people may be well versed in what I'm going to talk about today. However, I would like to say something regarding this in WOW.

Google Labs:
Google Labs is a website demonstrating new Google projects "that aren't quite ready for prime time". It serves as a testing ground for new services being developed. This is a way for Google to gain feedback on the products before releasing the final versions. Google's services do not always appear on the Labs page; some are beta tested by invitation-only, like Gmail and Google Calendar once were..

To know more about Google labs, visit both of these links. There is so many things to explore out there.

There are around 50+ Lab features in GMail. To access them, login to your GMail and click on Settings in the Google Navigation Bar. Choose Labs and use the ones you require most.

A few things that I would like you to explore in GMail labs are:
1) Multiple Inboxes
2) Forgotten Attachment Detector
3) Vacation Time!
4) Undo Send
5) Inserting images

Thanks,
Danish
