I’ve been a fan of Google’s web-based e-mail service Gmail pretty since it started in private beta.
Since the service’s humble beginnings as an improvement on the way we used web mail, many new features have been added, some neat and some pretty useless.
However, they’ve just one new nifty feature to save us from ourselves.
Enter Mail Goggles. If you enable this feature via the Gmail Labs link on your Gmail page, a new feature will kick in late at night on the weekends: After trying to send an e-mail, it’ll ask a series of math questions to ensure that the sender is sober and not about to send something they might regret.
I have to admit, this is a long overdue feature that I think may have saved many of us from certain embarassing situations had it been available in the past.
Though, I think other web services should roll-out a similar feature - especially Twitter.
