Gmail introduces smileys
Gmail has at last introduced the Smiley support. Gmail was first introduced on April 1, 2004. Its been more than 4 years and it is the only email client I have used for more than 4 years. Other email clients already have the emoticon support. I never really thought emoticons were that big a deal. May be Google was in the similar lines. It took them 4 odd years to introduce an apparently most wanted feature. Blogosphere is going crazy about this new feature. May be that is because it is from Google.
Some like the feature, some think it is a little raw, Some even think its crap.
Send out a smiley in your next email.
