6/29/2011 3:51:20 PM

I wonder if google can figure out a way to make your news feed display in chronological order and STAY that way.

Cause Facebook sure as fuck can't.

6/29/2011 4:45:52 PM

^ YES!!!!

6/29/2011 7:38:31 PM

invite restrictions are off. anyone with a current invite can send out an unlimited amount.

6/29/2011 9:41:14 PM

so far doesn't look like it :-| not to mention Vic Gundotra is dominating like half of my stream :-|

6/30/2011 10:20:16 AM

Can I get an invite? Pm me for email address.

6/30/2011 10:58:33 AM

I thought anybody could sign up now. I never got an invite but when I went to plus.google.com it just let me register and get going.

6/30/2011 12:53:21 PM

It won't let me do anything at plus.google.com except just sign up for more information.

6/30/2011 1:15:59 PM

Maybe somebody added me to their list of friends and it didn't send me an invite email for some reason.

6/30/2011 1:37:29 PM

why would anyone want to be friends with you dakota

6/30/2011 1:38:12 PM

invites are closed unless you got sent one last night. Sorry kids....I went to the bar instead of sending invites

6/30/2011 1:48:46 PM

Yay, woke up to one this morning.

6/30/2011 2:40:54 PM

Is there a way to use a different theme or something for my calendar?

6/30/2011 6:25:53 PM

So, in other news Helvetical appears to be abandoned.

Gmail's "new look" looks more like a reasonably well-designed webpage from 1998 that hasn't finished loading its frame and table borders.

7/10/2011 9:11:02 PM

that looks turrible

7/10/2011 10:33:28 PM

lol noticed this link in my gmail today

anyone use google offers yet? living social, groupon and now google

10/3/2011 10:06:20 AM

Google will have the best deals... it's a shame they aren't better at social networking.

And yes, I've used Google Offers twice now. They had a fandango deal a week or so ago.

10/3/2011 10:45:44 AM

is http://www.google.com/baraza new?

10/6/2011 9:59:40 PM

^ what is that? Google's version of Quora?

10/7/2011 12:12:53 AM

google wants to replace javascript with dart

10/10/2011 12:53:51 PM

not sure I like the new Gmail look

rather have words on my buttons than icons (delete, mark as, etc)

11/2/2011 10:53:52 AM

i don't like it. spacing is weird. i'd also prefer the words Delete & whatnot

11/2/2011 12:50:00 PM

I like it (mostly). I prefer not to have the words and I like the general layout. It's a much cleaner look. However, it may be too white and some of the light gray blends into the white. I'd like to see some other light coloring as well as some row differentiation in the inbox (such as alternating white/light gray bars to separate emails (some of this may be accomplished via a theme, though I haven't looked through them)

^ you can choose between 3 spacing settings by hitting the settings button (there are two; one for google (top right) and one for gmail (upper right)

^ nice, i kind of like the Compact style

11/2/2011 2:06:09 PM

I'm using cozy

11/2/2011 2:18:51 PM

I need this integrated into my Apps account. I've been using the "Preview (Dense)" version since they released it a few months ago.

11/2/2011 2:47:29 PM

I got tired of the incompatibility and slow release of google products to google apps.

I finally just started importing all my apps mail to my regular gmail and just use my regular gmail for everything now.

If only it would pull messages on more timely (i think it does it every hour, which is subpar)

11/2/2011 3:05:30 PM

well i chose a different spacing option & nothing changed. chose the 3rd option, nothing change again. the little check mark would move to next to the one i chose, but Compact was still bolded & it said (Current View) next to it.

11/2/2011 3:08:10 PM

^ odd, it seems to change immediately using Firefox and Chrome. and you'll definitely know when it changes

11/2/2011 3:13:49 PM

i'm using firefox 7.0.1

11/2/2011 3:28:38 PM

Everybody keeps talking about the new look for Gmail, but mine hasn't changed yet. My Google Reader changed yesterday, but I still have the same old look for Gmail.

I still don't have the little top corner mini-feed facebook thingie that everyone was complaining about last month either. It's not like I particularly care that much about either one, but I think it's weird. I'm using the latest version of FF, but I've tried logging in using other browsers and computers as well. Oh well.

11/2/2011 4:39:42 PM

my gmail didn't switch on its own. there's a little thing in the bottom right corner that says something about switching to the new look. i switched back.

11/2/2011 5:00:21 PM

^ (except for the switch back. might as well get used to it and I happen to like it)

try adjusting your theme, it looks like some themes don't do well with spacing adjustments

I think it'd be pretty innovative if it didn't give me a redirect loop all the damned time.

^^ doesn't work for me
