This news is irrelevant to people who already use thunderbird — which makes having a gmail account in the first place sorta redundant. The purpose for Google to release an offline Gmail client is for people who care more about the features of Gmail than they do the word that comes after their @ sign.

‘perhaps I an a computer retard, but we outnumber you, and demand things be simple and work.’

Yes, you do outnumber us. I agree that things should be simple and work. Why can’t this be a computer geek motto, too? 16 years working with computers, writing code and managing systems and I still don’t see the point of making things this complex.

Gmail Offline WILL be a Killer App, though good luck peeling the Outlook junkie away…

setting up gmail with Thunderbird or whatever program was a huge pain in the butt and ultimately a failure. perhaps I an a computer retard, but we outnumber you, and demand things be simple and work. Gears for gmail will be one of the first large improvements to my web experience in a long time.

Gmail can be accessed offline. Set up your Outlook / Thunderbird to access Gmail through POP3. It’ll download all of your messages. C’mon now.

Offline Gmail would definitely be a killer app for helping corporations switch over to Gmail for Corporate email systems. I really hope they are working on this.

@kango suz – except I pay $50 a year for Google Apps Premier–which has no ads to start with.

I don’t think that they will make GMail off-line accessible until they can figure out how to put the advertisements on it when you’re not online. GoogleDocs doesn’t have advertisements to the same extent that GMail does so I’m assuming that they’re not loosing any money by letting you use it without offline. But yea, it’d be nice to read my email while on the airplane.

That’s a very great feature from Google…Goggles always comes up with something fresh and great. And same as you, I’m waiting this feature on Gmail.

A great post for 1st April – Andy invents web mail…without the web. Nice idea.

Didn’t you know Andy? Instead of spending time to make better GMail applications that could maybe benefit us, Google is spending time creating useless new features such as the “Custom Time” feature as newly shown today!
