Google Introduces Gmail Paper

Posted by Zonk on from the finally-i-can-be-pc-free dept.

SlashRating© 56 slashdottit! tm nacturation writes "Everyone loves Gmail. But not everyone loves email, or the digital era. What ever happened to stamps, filing cabinets, and the mailman? Now with Gmail Paper, you can request a physical copy of any message with the click of a button, and it'll be sent to you in the mail. Photo attachments are printed on high-quality, glossy photo paper, and secured to your Gmail Paper with a paper clip. And it's totally free: the cost of postage is offset with the help of relevant, targeted, unobtrusive advertisements printed on the back of every print."

    This is the second time I've been fooled since getting to work an hour ago.

    I can't be discerning at this ungody hour.

    Is it really necessary to make the site completely useless one day of the year?

    What day in particular is that? I'd like to see them make the site completely useful for one day of the year :)

    It'd be a start

    When your finished reading, just select the amount of Google paper you require and tear along the pre-perforated line ...

    Frankly, I cannot wait to tell my boss what I did with his last memo.
