Everyone with a UID and Paul Stamatiou writes "Google's Gmail email service now sports a new feature for displaying RSS feeds, dubbed Web Clips. You might remember this name, as it is the same name Google Desktop refers to RSS feeds. Web Clips for Gmail were announced a long time ago sometime during the summer but they were finally stable enough to release to the general public. You can check out the what's new page for Gmail here. Essentially, you subscribe to a bunch of feeds and everytime you log into Gmail it loads the lastest title from each feed which you can scroll through with left/right arrows. Don't forget to check the actual post about Web Clips for Gmail on the Google Blog."

I h8 Gmail by DrunkenTerror · 2005-12-09 08:10 · Score: 0, Flamebait

It takes me about 15 minutes of screwing with browser, firewall, and proxy settings every time I want to check gmail. Screw that! I've gone back to using yahoo. Anyone else had similar experiences?
