Ever found that the task of replying to emails is too tedious. Well, so have I.

So now, Gmail has launched a new feature so that you don’t have to worry about replying to another email ever again.

Gmail have introduced a new beta project ‘Gmail Custom Time’. Where you can set the date of a ’sending’ email to anytime in the past.One funny thing about this project is the slogan, that is:

Be on time. Every time.*

*The term “Every time” is used loosely here to represent the number 10.

And the testimonials are hilarious. Go check ‘em out: here

Beta User Testimonials
	“The entire concept of ‘late’ no longer exists for me. That’s pretty cool. Thanks Gmail!” Miriam S., Delivery girl
	“I just got two tickets to Radiohead by being the ‘first’ to respond to a co-worker’s ‘first-come, first-serve’ email. Someone else had already won them, but I told everyone to check their inboxes again. Everyone sort of knows I used Custom Time on this one, but I’m denying it.” Robby S., Paralegal
	“This feature allows people to manipulate and mislead people with falsified time data. Time is a sacred truth that should never be tampered with.” Michael L., Epistemology Professor
	“I used to be an honest person; but now I don’t have to be. It’s just so much easier this way. I’ve gained a lot of productivity by not having to think about doing the ‘right’ thing.” Todd J., Investment Banker

She was the Apple of my iPod. The symbol of half eaten, shiny metal that keeps the doctors away. She was Cadie. Now that she has risen, it is time to bring out the swarms of GoogleBot babies to bring into effect my plan to take over the World wide web.

Here is her intro :

And by the way, it is April fools guys and gals ….

Gmail does not load, nor do the email part of Google partnerpages which use gmail.

Hope Google fixes this soon. A similar thing has happened earlier too and Google apologized for it.

We feel your pain, and we’re sorry

The current situation with gmail.com has been reported and the gmail support blog has posted a notice about it.

Status Update

Rumours that Google PageRank is not useful anymore is about to take a new turn.

Just as Silicon Valley insiders are calling for a qualified scuttling of Google’s PageRank algorithm in sussing out Web page relevance, U.K. researchers are turning to Google’s golden formula to combat the spread of treatment-resistent infections in hospitals.

According to a report in New Scientist, a Bradford University research group headed by Clive Beggs believes that PageRank could provide the key to understanding how superbugs, such as staph infections, are transmitted through the wards.

Viewing transmission routes — by hand, through the air, or otherwise — as what amount to “infectious networks,” Beggs and associates are attempting to build a matrix similar to Google’s page-relevancy tool to rank infection paths.

Simon Shepherd, a mathematician on board with the endeavor, believes that by observing normal daily activity in a hospital, a matrix of interactions among people and objects can be expressed and then analyzed to better understand where “nodes in the network” maximize the transmission of infections.

“Obviously nurses move among patients and that can spread infection, but they also touch light switches and lots of other surfaces too,” Shepherd told New Scientist. “We sussed out in one ward that the chief node was a light switch. It could potentially distribute infection to the rest of the ward very quickly.”

With such knowledge in hand, hospital administrators could then put policies in place or make alterations to hospital infrastructure to disrupt the infection network, targeting those nodes that the BugRank algorithm identifies as the most problematic.
