If they have a way to prevent drunk FaceBooking as well, I think they’ll be unstoppable. Thanks Jordan, this post made my day.

@Amit – have you missed the point, or does you job/work involve drinking?

This is a really nice feature that these guys have come up. I find it very useful working late nights and sending emails to clients. Amit's last blog post..Google Chrome’s Market share not looking good

well its a cool feature..but I don't think a workable one. I mean think about it ...When you are actually in the 'right state of mind'...solving math problems for sending a 1 line reply would be irritating. Saad Kamal's last blog post..Yahoo Web Analytics Beta Launched

Man you have a great blog here, Jordan! Well done. I keep finding more and more great posts.

Like you said, if it was on April 1st it would have been a great joke.
I wonder how many people would really want this feature – I guess it’s fun to try out but it’s not a thing I would ever want.
cheers,

Lol! I find this hard to believe. But it would do most of us a lot of good, I know that I’ve sent an email while drunk that I wasn’t supposed to.

Great concept from Google! Hehehe

As stated in the article, this is something you have to enable. It’s not a default; that’s what Gmail Labs are for.

And again, once enabled, you can customize the time it’s set to work.

This is hilarious, yet on reflection, quite a useful tool for very impulsive people. I think that I shall give it a whirl! Nicole Price's last blog post..Discount Lingerie

As I similarly commented on ReadWriteWeb about this tool, where’s the value in proofing a sent email at 3 a.m. when the recipient may be at her office on the other side of the world?

Moreover, there is an assumption built-in that everyone works the first or second shift. What about those who work the third shift and routinely send emails when everyone else is asleep in a given time zone?
