Google Brings Back Offline Support to Gmail, Adds Offline Docs and Calendar
02 Sep 2011 by Craig Lloyd
Ever since the demise of Google Gears back in December 2009, we’ve always been yearning to get some kind of offline support back to our essential Google applications. Finally, they’ve added offline mode to Gmail, Docs and Calendars. However, it’s only available through the Chrome web browser. Why only Chrome, you ask? Well, Google says that other browsers haven’t implemente...

Google Releases New Themes for Gmail and Google Calendar
01 Jul 2011 by Kevin Ivanca / 3 Comments
Dear people living under rocks this past week: If you haven’t noticed, Google has decided to tackle bold new things recently, with widespread success. First, they came out with Google+, a type of digital, communal gathering site that allows one to keep up with friends and collaborate with them (Which I am sure that Techerator will summarize into article form). And that was pretty cool. But t...

Firebug add-on for Firefox is known to slow Gmail
24 Jun 2011 by Evan Wondrasek
Firebug is a free, open source add-on for Firefox that provides essential tools for web developers. If you have Firebug installed and have logged into Gmail recently, however, you’ll be greeted with an intimidating message that states: “Firebug is known to make Gmail slow unless it is configured correctly.” This message also contains a link to “Fix This”, but you wil...

How to maintain Inbox Zero and still read every email
10 Jun 2011 by Evan Wondrasek
My inbox is a sanctuary, a veritable digital zen garden. I have 0 unread messages, I’ve never declared email bankruptcy, and I do a fairly good job of replying to any email that needs my input. A series of small yellow stars decorate my inbox, denoting any messages that still require my action. I’ve never really talked about my email practices with others before, so I was surprised w...

Crack the Lid on Gmail’s Canned Responses to Dish Out Quick Replies
08 Nov 2010 by Evan Wondrasek
If you find yourself writing impersonal, repetitive emails often, Gmail’s Canned Responses feature is a great way to streamline this tedious process. Canned Responses allows you to save pre-written messages, so next time you need to remind Ted that the wireless network’s ID is “Potato1″ you can take care of it with just a couple clicks. To activate Canned Responses, open...

Make Gmail into a Carnival with 0Boxer, Earn Rewards for Being Productive
07 Oct 2010 by Kevin Ivanca / 2 Comments
Time to face hard facts: Checking your Gmail inbox is not the most enjoyable thing you do during the day. To be honest, it can be quite boring, really. Reading, replying, trashing, and repeat; it never ends. Even using Priority Inbox doesn’t solve the mediocrity email sorting creates. Wouldn’t it be great if you could actually get recognition for your inboxing skills? Should...

Priority Inbox: Gmail Tells You What Messages are Important, You Profit (?)
01 Sep 2010 by Kevin Ivanca / 3 Comments
Busy people, rejoice. Gmail, the primary electronic mail client offered by the giant Google, is getting a simple add-on sometime in the near future (it’s actually rolling out right now, but it will be a week before everybody has it). What does it entail, one might ask? Well, its a filter. Not a new spam filter (Gmail already has one of those), but a new new filter that tells you, the u...

Gmail Improves Undo Send Feature, Saving Careers and Relationships
23 Aug 2010 by Evan Wondrasek / 1 Comment
I’m probably a little over-paranoid, but I always get a slight wave of anxiety before I send an important email. Questions like “Did I say the right things?”, “Did I address it to the correct person?”, and “Did I refrain from speaking like a pirate?” all rush through my head before I click that ominous little Send button. As a relief to me, Gmail release...

Gmail Adds Highly Requested Feature – Rich Text Signatures
09 Jul 2010 by Evan Wondrasek
I have a very simple email signature in Gmail, but I’ve always been disappointed that I wasn’t able to add links or change the formatting. I mean, we can use the rich text editor in the main composition window of Gmail, why can’t we use it in our signatures? For example, I get away with having a link to Techerator in my signature by writing out the full URL (and hoping that the...
