Google excites

Google has been the most dependable search engine for ages since I got hooked to the net. But Friday was one of the most exciting of those googling email days. Its new Themes makeover has in a way brought life into the mailbox. Novelty factor maybe.

A whole new look log-in page, colourful themes options in the mailbox. Themes to suit your moods. And colours more importantly. If the sombre greens are boring or the blues and greys do not please you, try the pebbles for that nostalgic trip by the riverside. Probably Orkut themes were only a trial-run for the gmail theme options. Would like it if they brought about themes that relate to professions too. The colour and theme settings are a lot ahead of yahoo too.

I like the desk theme and the pebbles theme most. Did try the classy black theme, but realised that it is hard-hitting on the eye with too much contrast. So it is back to the desk theme, or occasionally sky and sun combo. To my delight, even the weebly website making portal has diversified itself, just in time for that dream website of mine, should I say!

Wish I could work around using folders or at least compartments in the mailbox too, which would solve a lot of trouble. Am hoping Google's R & D team works on that front.

Am yearning for a day when I open a mailbox to find my blog, website, chat (it's around true, but limited in options) desktop options, to-do lists, all in one page. Stars in my eyes...alright...am getting back to the earth.
