Jeff Nolan's take on innovation, entrepreneurship, tech and stuff that interests me
Twitter makes sure that they throw in the obligatory “this ain’t about Google Apps” disclaimer when actually it pretty much is. This attack had nothing to do with any vulnerability in Google Apps which we continue to use. [From Twitter Blog: Twitter, Even More Open Than We Wanted] If Twitter were using something other than [...]
Google’s Gmail team really needs to get a handle on this whole naming thing, as in not naming a new feature something that it really doesn’t do. Zoli sums it up nicely. First of all, I love Gmail, it’s my one-and-only email system. And I’m certainly glad to see the ever accelerating rate of enhancements, [...]
In terms of an email interface, Gmail pretty much delivers the goods. If you have the choice to use Gmail instead of Exchange, well that’s a pretty attractive option for a number of reasons and as good as Outlook is, what a lot of people are discovering is that it’s not the killer app that [...]

For the second time in as many months, I am having serious Gmail problems. People are telling me that gmail is replying to them that “your message may not have been delivered”. I know for fact that not all messages are being delivered because I sent one to myself that never got there. Performance is [...]
Ever since Google turned on IMAP in Gmail I have noticed some general service weirdness that is not easily explained: 1) Performance has swung from great to unusable in the online version. Today it’s moderately slow. 2) IMAP with Apple Mail is generally reliable but unreliable with enough frequency to make me cross my fingers [...]
