Google Mail Goggles

mailgogglesIf you have a problem with writing email while inebriated, there is a new Google Labs feature in beta which may be able to help you out: Mail Goggles. “When you enable Mail Goggles, it will check that you’re really sure you want to send that late night Friday email. And what better way to check than by making you solve a few simple math problems after you click send to verify you’re in the right state of mind? By default, Mail Goggles is only active late night on the weekend as that is the time you’re most likely to need it. Once enabled, you can adjust when it’s active in the General settings.” It’s a clever and funny little plug-in, but it seems like people who really need it have a bigger problem than sending ill-advised emails to coworkers and exes.
