As I was using Gmail this morning I noticed the new feature notification for "Custom Time." Opening the link I found that Gmail had added the ability to alter the sent time header on an email message. - This seemed a bit strange (e.g., using an e-flux capacitor - but geeks are fond of borrowing terms from SI-FI for their new inventions). Besides, the Google folks are always ones for creating things outside of the box. Finally, after reading and closing the page I realized what this was all about - 1-Apr! Perhaps I would have been faster if they had not used the calendar image for 31-Mar. Great job guys. You brought a smile to my lips this morning.

Re: Gmail Custom time Ah, yes, but they used the March 31st calendar page on April 1st BECAUSE they could go back in time! I do love the folks at Google!
