Go wild with these Gmail themes

by JG Mason on Nov 20, 2008 at 06:00 PM

Gmail themes get wild Tired of the blue on white theme you’ve been living with for years?  Finally, it looks like we are getting more themes than I ever expected from the fine folks at Google.  The themes are being propagated to users in a process that usually takes days to get to everyone.

The themes are controlled in Settings in their own tab.  If you don’t see a Themes tab, you’ll just have to wait.  Soon we’ll have over 30 different themes to play with.  Some themes mimic iGoogle in changing based on time of day and weather.

Google enterprise customers can stop looking for the Themes tab, it isn’t coming, at least not yet.  Themes have not been extended to these customers, which seems odd.

I’ve used Greasemonkey scripts to change themes of my Gmail and I feel these themes are long overdue to most users who don’ t want to take the time to tinker under the hood.

Limited edition HTC Touch available in four new colors, only if you’re in Singapore

HTC Touch limited editions

An eBay auction for four limited edition HTC Touch handsets is currently in the works, with the lowest bid positioned at a measly 1.05 Singapore dollars ($0.78 US) and the highest bid at a still fairly cheap 151 Singapore dollars ($111.49 US). Proceeds from the sales of these four unique handsets will go straight to the bank of the Children’s Cancer Foundation, which is proof that HTC knows the right way to fairly share its blessings.

Other than being helpful to cancer patients and adding publicity to its HTC Touch handset line, I can’t find any other reason why HTC might want to do something like this? Looking to attract more fashionable users? That could be a good theory. But maybe they just want to show the world that they’re not really all business, all the time. The HTC also knows how to play, and has a bright side. Which is a good sign that the company is currently in good times.
