    I mean, think about it - with Google already supporting RSS feeds for mail messages, now we'll actually be able to get our GMail mail through web clips. Imagine - being able to get Google Mail through Google Mail - Revolutionary!

    Er, wait a minute...

    Pst. I've got an app that lets me use GMail, search, read RSS, watch video, play games, and do tons of other internet stuff. It's got tabs, so you can maintain one area's state while you work with another. It's awesome.

    Look at it here. But don't tell anyone!@#!

    I can't help but feel sorry for the 3 people in this country who still don't have a Gmail account. If only there were some other way for them to get news on the web...

    Someday the term 'Internet access' will be replaced with 'Google access'.

    Google is the idea Pinky and The Brain should have had.

      Shhh! That's why they stopped making the cartoons. Brain did take over the world. Just don't let others know.

    Do you have a 2 button mouse or one with a scroll or maybe you got a crazy one button mouse?Instead of complaining like a nancy, I usally just scroll paste the articles....It is crazy....but it is just me. Almost forgot...the up and down errors work as well...give it a try.
