I'm not complaining because I'm unappreciative, I'm actually very appreciative. I'm complaining because that's how software evolves. Software most usually obtains new features when a large portion of the community would find a usefulness in it.<BR/><BR/>Sure, this isn't the right place to complain, but there's still a little frustration. I hate having obscure label names because I can't manually sort them or organize my labels in a collapsible/expandable tree-like form. My mailing-list labels look like ml:Foo, ml:Bar, and my regular labels all have a dot in front of them, like .Personal, .Work, and .Fun.<BR/><BR/>So while GMail has done a lot right, they still have a lot more room for improvement. After all, they are still beta, and complaints/suggestions are a part of the development cycle.Robert Daileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04513009185738812748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-16571225746330610772009-02-12T15:43:00.000-08:002009-02-12T15:43:00.000-08:00void.pointer, Gmail is growing like crazy and bein...void.pointer, Gmail is growing like crazy and being adopted and loved at an incredible rate.

It's a place to test ideas, get feedback and release unfinished features early to see if they have potential.<BR/><BR/>Gmail doesn't become more bloated because you can enable/disable each Labs feature individually. Most of the features are developed in the 20% time of a Google engineer, so they don't "invest all of their time into stupid labs". Gmail tasks, offline Gmail, superstars, canned responses, SMS, gadgets are useful features that will certainly graduate from Labs.Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-3121806811519639082009-02-11T07:26:00.000-08:002009-02-11T07:26:00.000-08:00@void.pointer"Google" isn't really building these ...@void.pointer<BR/>"Google" isn't really building these features in Gmail, the labs things are mostly peoples 20% projects.
