Security online is one of the major issues and concerns for all the people hooked to it. We have seen how compromising can it be for anyone; from individuals to organizations. We have seen the Sony PlayStation network being hacked by some notorious folks out there and very recently the Nokia Developers Forum a couple of days back. It can be denting to the reputation that takes decades to build and trust that’s very hard earned. Now I don’t need to reiterate the entire philosophy behind trust building. Read More »

Google to me means big, improving your Web experience and of course including some concerns of putting too much trust on one service. But it has definitely evolved our experience with services like the Search, and more importantly, Gmail. The free email service continues to make emailing better. Today Google is taking a step further by helping you keep an eye on emails that are or should be your top priority.

It has happened several times with me when I typed an email and sent it only to realize I shouldn’t have done so. Google did provide us a precious 5 seconds to cancel sending an email via Gmail, 5 seconds, err…
However the good news is that the time duration has been extended to around half a minute. That gives you a good 30 seconds to undo sending an email. Just don’t confuse that you can undo messages that have been sent already. What Gmail does is keep an email on hold for the given duration before forwarding it to the recipient.

I have always found searching the contacts link on Gmail an almost impossible task, primarily because I have got hundreds of labels which require a lot of scrolling to do. In short, if there is anything bad about Gmail, it is the contacts. Today that changes, something which we had reported earlier.
The change is said to be rolled out today for all Gmail users across the globe. The update will bring the buttons for Mail, Contacts and Tasks just beneath the Gmail logo. That’s not it, the changes are beyond the relocation of buttons and when you click on the contacts, you will see some revamping of the sidebar where contacts are assigned labels. Not just that the contacts are aligned more in a manner you are accustomed to on Gmail. You have drop down menus for Groups, default categories like My Contacts, Family, Friends and Coworkers. Other than that you can of course add your own custom labels as needed.

Good news for all us Gmail users first Google announced the ability to access multiple accounts on Gmail and today the email service eased downloading attachments. It was a nightmare at first, taking ages to click on the link, press OK to download or select a folder with numerous clicks. All that changes today as Gmail enabled drag and drop attachments in your email, though this is only available on the Chrome browser.

Looks like there are a few updates ready to be introduced by Google for Gmail. According to the Google Systems blog, the internal build for Google’s email service has quite a lot of new features that have been spotted. Those that have already been in tests for quite some time now.
Once these changes are introduced, users will be able to see links to Mail, Contacts and Tasks just below the logo of Gmail along side a button taking place of the text link for composing an email message. Other notable changes include:

It appears that we will be seeing a further expansion of the Facebook Like button with the coming of MailChimp version 5.2. The new version, which is supposed to be released in the next week will include support for the plugin to be integrated within email campaigns. So what is this going to do? What ever does online: share your subscription to your Facebook profile if you do like it.
That behavior would help MailChimp keep a better track on the campaign and at the same time become a part of the social media monitoring. I know it sounds super cool for the promoters and campaign managers as we have already seen so much benefits it has brought to everyone around. Firstly it’s easy to get along with, you like a page, just press the button and there it goes to your profile and appearing as an activity on your friends’ news feeds. That brings in loads of referrals to any site and shift that over to emails, you have a viral campaign catching fire on Facebook.

Web based instant messaging company, Meebo appears to be extending the services it offers and integrating email to its desktop notifier. The notifier has got a new mail tab in its preferences. If users check the option they will be notified about new emails for the various IM accounts they have signed in at Meebo. While email notifications don’t really mean much save for adding another useful feature to the service, but reports state that Meebo is planning something even bigger, apparently the company has changed its employees email address from employee@meebo.com to employee@meebo-inc.com. Is Meebo brewing something bigger in its pot, perhaps its very own Webmail product?
