Google is genuine proof that companies do listen to their patrons. Google has thrown some Labs features back into Gmail, features that are experimental and may or may not be added to the “final” version of Gmail. The entire Labs idea is to harness the creativity of the Google staff.

Thirteen Labs features have recently been added to Gmail, all available to enable or disable in the Settings menu. The thirteen features are: Quick Links, Superstars, Pictures in chat, Fixed with font, Custom keyboard shortcuts, Mouse gestures, Signature tweaks, Random signatures, Custom date format, Muzzle, Old Snakey, Email Addict, Hide unread counts.

All of those are, more or less, self explanatory, but if you’re confused head over to your Gmail inbox and click “Settings.“  A neat little feedback is even provided, so Google knows what you like and don’t like.

Hopefully, Google continues this updating of their software; all their apps are in beta after all.
