Title: Technology has reached a pivotal moment
Post by: BerG on June 05, 2013, 09:09:55 pm

I just wrote an email in gmail, which included an attachment.

I clicked send, when a popup came up and told me that there was no attachments, which was strange because I had specified in my message that a file was attached. It asked me if I wanted to attach a file before sending.


I had forgotten to attach the file.

As someone who has sent many business emails/CV's and forgotten to attach the file that the email was all about, this is a game changer.



I still cant get over it. Life will never be the same.

Yes.

This has been a feature of gmail for quite a few years now :)

Possibly the single best thing about gmail; and I'm being serious.

That's typically what people who haven't used it since they were 12 say. It's actually pretty good.

It's much better since they rebranded to outlook.com. Many improvements.

I'd be more impressed if it correctly attached the file you wanted automatically.
