Google Bringing HTML5 To Gmail

angry tapir writes "In keeping with Google's enthusiasm for the emerging HTML5 standard, many upcoming features of the company's Gmail Web-based e-mail service will be rendered in HTML5. One feature that the Gmail design team is now working on is the ability to drag files from the desktop into the browser. Gmail will also make use of HTML5's database standards. Currently the e-mail service uses Google Gears to store mail for offline reading, but over time that will migrate to the HTML5 standards."

    Unless your other accounts are done through Google Apps, in which case, it's sign out, find the Google Account's sign in page for the correct domain, then sign in.

    False.

    You can be signed into both a regular gmail account and a Google apps hosted e-mail account at the same time. I normally have one tab open with my personal gmail account and another open with with my Google apps hosted business mail account...
