The people over at Gmail are rolling out a cool new feature in Gmail Labs: offline Gmail. They claim to be rolling it out to all US and UK based users over the next few days. You can read the announcement from Google here. This is a feature I have been waiting for for a long time and it further cements Gmail as the best email option available, in my opinion. The offline feature is an experimental feature, so there may be some issues with it, but I am sure that Google will get them ironed out soon enough. As I type this, I am still waiting to have the feature enabled on my Gmail. Do you have it yet? Let me know your thoughts if you do.

Chris has been bugging me for at least a year to switch to Google. I have an account, but mostly use my Yahoo! address. Let me know if it's worth the trouble of me switching over…
I think so, Gmail is the nerve center of almost everything I do online, and I have never found anything else that can do all the things it can do as well as it does them. And it's free.
