20 Ways to Use Gmail Filters - Stepcase Lifehack

  • Booleans. The filter works much like Gmail’s search function, in that you can add search terms such as AND or OR or NOT. So I can look for addresses that are from a number of people (using OR), or emails that must include all of the words on a list (using AND). Use search operator symbols to make it even easier: “|” for OR, space for AND, “-” for NOT, and parentheses to group different terms in your search string.

4 Web Resources You Should Check Out Before Everyone Else Does : Brazen Careerist - A Career Center for Generation Y

I'm totally into checking out the latest and greatest site/widget/program/web app to do x, y, and z easier/better/faster/prettier/standards-compliant, so this article caught my eye. I'm already using gmail (Love it! Really, if you're not using it, please give it a try. It will change the way you email.) and Twitter (I could take it or leave it. The author of this post gets it right: the site is <b>not</b> as user friendly as it could be, and <a href="http://www.plurk.com">Plurk</a> shows how a microblogging site can focus on interaction <i>and</i> still be user-friendly.), but I haven't used Hulu (because you have to be in the US to do so) or Newsvine (no excuse here! I'm going to check it out, though).

Gmail - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  • On July 4, 2005, Google announced that Gmail Deutschland would be rebranded to Google Mail. From that point forward, visitors originating from an IP address determined to be in Germany would be forwarded to googlemail.com where they could obtain an email address containing the new domain. Any German user who wants a gmail.com address must sign up for an account through a proxy. German users who were already registered were allowed to keep their old addresses.


    The German naming issue is due to a trademark dispute between Google and Daniel Giersch. Daniel Giersch owns a company called "G-mail" which provides the service of printing out emails from senders and sending the print-out via postal mail to the intended recipients. On 30 January 2007, Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market ruled in favor of Giersch.[73] It seems Google isn't without a sense of humor as this is the same service Google "offered" in the Gmail Paper April Fool's Day joke in 2007.
