Gmail gets even more Google plus integration.
An excellent blog post that will help you improve your productivity if you use gmail. I love "find big mail" as it helps free up space for me. If you want to be more productive, great apps and instructions in this epic gmail productivity post.
Here's a Chrome add in that should be part of gmail. It shows an icon to display what the attachment file format is.
So, if you want to delete only the attachment to an email in gmail, the only way to do this is in Thunderbird. This is unfortunate as there are many times I wish I could have the email but delete the message itself. Here is how if you have to.

Here is a solution for deleting email attachments in Gmail without deleting the message itself.
This is a better way then forwarding the message to yourself because you actually save the original message and timestamps, but with attachments removed. This solution gets the results you want, albeit a little time consuming. The basic idea is access your gmail account as an IMAP account using Thunderbird, and then use Thunderbird’s feature for deleting attachments. You just need to make sure messages are first moved to a local folder, then moved back to an imap folder.
Details:
- Determine messages in Gmail that need an attachment removed.
- Access these messages in Thunderbird via IMAP access. To make this easier, in the Gmail web interface you can create a new label such as "delete-attachments" for these messages.
-Select messages in TB and "Copy To" a local folder. This will download a copy of the message and attachment(s) to your local drive.
-Then, using the Gmail web interface, delete the messages permanently.
-Return to Thunderbird and access the messages stored in the local folder.
-Delete the attachments in the locally-stored messages individually.
-Finally select the messages and use the "Move To" command and select a label within Gmail to move the message. This will copy the messages back to Gmail without the attachment and upload the message to Gmail servers with original time stamps.

How to free up space in your gmail. This is another way to get through freeing up space in your gmail inbox.
Moving from one gmail account to the other. Here are some instructions.
I love this! Gmail motion was Google's april fools day prank and many people fell for it. Heck, if I'd had time, I might have played with it but after thinking I realized what day it was! Tee hee.
But a lot of people WANTED this -even though the gestures were designed to be silly (who is going to do a jumping jack for making a star on an email.) so ICT used a kinect camera and actually made Gmail actions work! Watch the video and enjoy.
People actually WANT this just not with the exaggerated motions and definitely not a shot that requires the camera to see your feet.
Really cool new feature in Gmail -- priority inbox. I have it on one account but the other has not received it yet!!
Some new features in gmail August 10, 2010. Particularly the contact updates are exciting to me.
Turn on shortcut keys in gmail and learn to use them - they can save you a lot of time!
! reports it as spam and
# moves to trash just to name a few ;-)
m mutes the conversation unless sent or cc'd directly to you! ;-)
If you are like me and get a lot of messages and heavily use the label feature to cull through routine newsgroups, etc. then the spreadsheet will help you generate the code to be able to generate an unlabeled search in gmail.
So, you want to work with your gmail when you are out. Enable this little cool tool in gmail and work offline.
A link from twitter from rorowe (http://twitter.com/rorowe) on twitter about how to sync Gmails and calendars w/ the itouch. Plodding through this to see if it is what I want to do.
I actually looked at this and am synching through Outlook for just my personal calendar and then accessing google calendars as a web app over wifi. So, I'm just going to set this up for the contacts for now just to get them on my itouch.

Footnotes;
- This will sync all your calendars, (except ones shared over your domain for Google Apps users), however they will all appear as the one calendar on your iPhone (eg. no colour coding).
- All of your existing contacts & calendars will be wiped from your iPhone, so I’d recommend you make a backup before turning on ‘push’
Session management for gmail lets you know how many places that you are logged in.
Excellent article on Gmail Contacts and how it can be accessed separately.
Very useful information on how to use gmail. Great guide on how to and I even picked up some new things that I didn't know.
