I believe many of you have noticed that Gmail has added several features related to “Label”.

As you can see, you can assign label colors to all your labels. This is definitely a good move in making the labeling clearer. This label color is link to conversation window, and email list so that you can differentiate the label assigned to each email. Previously, we have to look at the label text on the left side of each email.

Colored Label appears in each individual when you are viewing an email list.

Colored Label appears in conversation window. Noticed there’s a cross beside the label. That is for you to remove an email from the label. Previously, we have to click More Action drop-down menu and select the label we want to remove. Now it is a lot easier.

These are the only features that I have noticed within this few weeks. Since there is no announcement by Google, there may be more that I have missed out. If there any any, please let me know. Thanks

I came across an article saying that Google Gdrive is on the way coming to our daily needs “Storage”.

As quoted from the site:
Google is planning to launch a new online service dubbed “Gdrive”, wherein users will be allowed to securely store their PC data online.

The service will allow users to store data such as Office docs, digital music, video clips, and images from their PC hard drives onto the online storage space to be offered by Google.

The stored data will be available for access to users through the Internet on different PCs and mobile phones. It will also be available for sharing files with friends after signing-in with a password, as and when required.

However, the storage space and expansion options being made available to users have not been revealed yet.

The online storage service is no news as rumors about “Gdrive” have been doing the rounds of industry for quite sometime now.

And amidst all this, there are concerns being raised about the privacy of data and copyright issues, because content will be stored online, which can lead to illegal sharing of it.

According to Google though, data privacy has been addressed with the utmost sensitivity, and extensive safeguards have been put in place to protect user data.

“Gdrive” is just a few months away from release.
