A while back I somehow stumbled upon some Google-run blog, where I saw a post about the quote unquote Google Browser. It looked interesting, so I downloaded it. After installing it, I found out that it was pretty much just a Windows version of the command line Lynx browser (any old timers here?) with a nice installer. It's interesting to browse with Lynx - no images, no JavaScript, no CSS, just straight out text and form elements. I could barely imagine using Lynx for my day-to-day browsing. Here's a screenshot of Gmail in Lynx:

Wow, that is interesting. I also notice you have 7000 some spam messages. I don't think I'd be able to use that for day to day browsing either.

QUOTE(ghostrider @ Nov 19 2006, 08:52 PM)  I also notice you have 7000 some spam messages. They are in the spam folder for a reason, and they don't use any of my alloted storage space  .
