Gmail has launched new features in step of becoming a stable email service instead of a beta service.

Here's the list of the new features.

Auto-Save
This feature will automatically save your composed emails in case of any mishappening...like crashing of browser or timing out of connection.

Export
It will allow people to export the address book...there are two options at this time..one is to export is as gmail csv...bascially to import the address book to a diff. gmail account and another is exporting as Outlook csv so that you can import the contacts in diff. email services or programs like eudora, outlook and all others.

I'm sure that with the introuction of these features it will attract other people as well.

hey there is one more addition to Gmail. The thing is that Gmail do not show this feature all the time. They keep on finding new ways to puzzle the people. Well the new feature is that we can now even read gmail on our mobile. Yes, you can logon the mobile using the conventional login feature and start receiving mails.
This is really cool. They are giving strong competition to yahoo. Go Google!!

Wow, is it just me or is Google slowly creeping up on Microsoft? I also heard that giving all of San Francisco Wifi is in the works for them as well. They started with a powerful search engine, then email, then wifi, then GoogleEarth(map program), eventually, internet domination.

I also think these features are handy, but i don't use gmail. Is it still in a beta phase? Didn't know that. The save function is a very good idea and also the export function, cus much people do have more then one e-mail account, like one private and one for work.

I totally agree with you. Google is about the best thing to happen to the internet since broadband connections. Not only do they have google earth the map program but they have Maps.google.com where you can look up the arial view of any address online. They also have videos.google.com which is in beta right now also. That is useful if you are looking for clips that you probably missed on the 10pm news. Also google images kicks a** also. Maybe its only a matter of time before google launches its own updated version of the internet (j/k) lol. That would be cool though wouldn't it?

Yes, google mail keeps improving each time. In fact, google has branded its name nicely and it keeps moving up the ladder of success in every fields google is taking up. Apart from the new feature you've mentioned here I really like the web clips which is quite new as well. I have this feature in the newest gmail ID but not in the previous one. I don't know what is the reason for this.

Web clips is like newsfeed from any other website which are in the form of RSS. Have anyone seen this feature as well?

I cannot wait until google starts to integrate google earth and other services they offer such as photo programs directly into Gmail really creatively. They have done some really interesting things recently, especially with Gmail. I still think the ads are a little creepy within the mail, but I can deal with that given the 2.6 gbs of space!

The only problem with all these Google inventions is that they're all in Beta. Maybe they should review their inventions in their own labs for much longer periods before releasing it online as a Beta service.

Also, with the Google Earth, they didn't really develop it. They bought a company called Keyhole and then based Google Earth on Keyhole. If you go to www.keyhole.com right now, you can get better versions of Google Earth (but all these have to be paid for). Google Earth also has paid-versions.

Oh, did you know that major networks like the American news network CNN and many United States military branches are using developments of Keyhole? They also have this cool customized tracking feature for enterprises who need to keep track of their cars, employees, aircraft, etc. In my opinion, the major delivery companies (e.g.: FedEx, Purolator, UPS) should implement the enterprise versions of Keyhole.

Now Google has included Google Talk with GMail. So from our GMail we can access the Google Talk features and Chat from the Indox.

Well well well, I am back again with certain new features

Well, I am sure people who use Gmail regularly must have noticed it by this time..Gmail + Talk!
Yes! I think this will be a revolution in the email/pm or if we talk about a bigger picture "the communication"!

Just imagine..you can chat with your friends and get an instant answer without using any external application!
I think..this feature will drive lots of people to use GMAIL and not only this will increase the gmail useres...it will increase the number of people who use Google Talk!

Google Talk is definitly..a good IM but personally...I dont like it much...for the fact..that it misses some of the important features..like similies...but integrating it with Gmail will certainly help me and others to communicate easily and instantly!

Another plus is that where ever you chat...it saves you chat and makes sure that it is stored in your GMAIL account only..i.e. global archive of the chat sessions...this way..it ensures that even if you are on a public or shared computer...your privacy is with you! I've faced some problems when I used to surf in the internet cafe's while using the Yahoo messenger (it stores the chat messages locally..hah!)!

and what else can you ask for...if you chatting with someone through Google Talk application..your chat will still be saved in GMAIL account and finally.......You get the option in which if you want..you can turn the feature off of the saving of a particular chat session regardless what other persons settings are!
