Mail Goggles to save you from shame

Image representing Google as depicted in Crunc...Who has never regretted that crazy spur of the moment mail sending when you tell your ex she is the love of your life at 3am, after many drinks? This might have happened to some of the Google programmers as well as Google now makes available for Gmail a little functionality called Mail Goggles.

When activated (from the labs tab in Google's settings), this experiment will test you with five maths problems in a limited time. On default, Mail Goggles is set to test you on Friday to Monday betwenn 10pm and 4am but this can be changed (from the general settings).

If you still manage to get over those 5 problems, no panick because you can increase the difficulty (from level 1 to 5) and make it harder for yourself to send that silly mail.


Google labs is a a sort of addon that allows you to access all the latest experiments coming from Google. It is only available to US and UK users and offers many more experiments.
