Gmail New Service - Gmail offers Google goggles to avoid late night drunken emails
by Ramakant Navghare 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

To, Dear All, *Gmail offers Google goggles to avoid late night drunken emails.* ** Users of Gmail, Google's email system, can now activate a new feature called Mail Goggles. It requires an emailer to solve a few easy maths problems quickly before hitting the "send" button. The service is set by default to come into force only on weekend nights, although the settings can be changed. Google's theory is that if your mental faculties are sufficiently intact to answer the questions, you will have been composed enough to be aware of the consequences of whatever you have just typed. ** *To activate Goggles, Gmail users should click the "Settings" link at the top of a Gmail page, then go to the "Labs" section.* Thank You, Regards, Ramakant Amar Navghare Administrator, Knowledge Management KPMG KPMG House II Kamala Mills Compound SB Marg Lower Parel (West) Mumbai 400 013 Tel +91 (22) 39896000 Fax +91 (22) 39895554 email : ramakant.navghare(a)gmail.com Mob.
