This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I was very excited to get an invite shortly after it's opened and I still have all the emails that tell me my friend XYZ accepted my invitation to Gmail.
It was a time when getting a Gmail invitation wasn't trivial.
Here's a video recalling how exciting it was to have a Gmail.
Nowadays it's different and possibly less good, but searching in Gmail is still very easy, which is awesome
I think I got mine via some kind of lottery system back in the day. I used to be a big fan of Google back in those times. Was amazing to have 1000mb.
The search has been broken for me for a while. I get better results in the iOS mail app. Searching from within gmail will just flat out not show old results.
When I look for things on Gmail on my laptop, I get detailed and complete results, when I do the same on the Gmail app, it seems like I get all results up to maybe two years ago (and it doesn't show the rest). This second thing is really annoying, but at least on the computer version I always get everything
That’s almost the exact opposite experience for me. Maybe there’s been a more recent update, but I remember searching for specific phrases in decade old messages and the gmail (web site) search would just flat out refuse to show things but I could find them from my phone. I’ll try again, but to be honest, I’ve somewhat given up on google search in general for results that aren’t recent.
Is Gmail still the preferred email address to use on resumes?
was it ever? I participate in interview rounds at my company (several tech screens a month) and I must say a candidate's email was not something that drew attention
