Gmail Turns 15, Gets Smart Compose Improvements and Email Scheduling (techcrunch.com)
Today, to celebrate its fifteenth birthday, the Gmail team announced a couple of a new and useful Gmail features, including improvements to Smart Compose and the ability to schedule emails to be sent in the future. From a report: Smart Compose, which tries to autocomplete your emails as you type them, will now be able to adapt to the way you write the greetings in your emails. If you prefer 'Hey' over 'Hi,' then Smart Compose will learn that. If you often fret over which subject to use for your emails, then there's some relief here for you, too, because Smart Compose can now suggest a subject line based on the content of your email. With this update, Smart Compose is now also available on all Android devices.
Yeah, it's crappy. It's been ignored for years. But it mostly works and I never have to put up with those oddball webmail interfaces. All my inboxes work in the same reliable way they have for years and Tbird doesn't try to think for me.
...omphaloskepsis often...
... as long as we can turn it off.
Why would anybody use Gmail? Is it really worth saving $2/month on email to let Google spy and catalog all of your email?
I don't respond to AC's.
