Gmail provide unsubscribe links from any newsletters

Gmail add new feature to simplify the process of unsubscribing newsletter or mailing list from within Gmail. By now, after you click on ‘show details’, you’ll notice new ‘unsubscribe from this sender’ link available.

According to the Gmail blog post, clicking the link will automatically send a request back to the sender so they’ll stop emailing you.

This unsubsribe option is not visible for email from suspected spammers (after all they’re spammers right??)

Gmail said this is not working for all senders at the moment. In my observation of emails that have the unsubscribe link and those that not.

Email from sender with Gmail unsubscribe links

  • Google Alerts
  • Subscibed comments

Email from senders without the Gmail unsubscribe links

  • RSS subsribed post
  • Getrepond
  • Aweber

mylivesignature simplifying signature creation online

One of my family member love to join the contest, but certain contest do require him to create the signature of the given brand or company name in the most creative way (I think this will determine the winner) on top of other simple questions. And that’s where the headache began for him.

Being ‘kind hearted’ as alway (hehe), secretly I did dome ‘googling’ (or ‘Binging’??).  In seconds, I found mylivesignature . Wow it is free somemore!

It let you create signiture using their own wizard (contain 100 over signature style),  or draw it directly on the screen, or upload the image of signature that you want to be digitized (paid and not really fit his needs).

No signing required to use the service and you can generate the HTML code to place the signature like these on your page. You may want to download it for other purpose as well.

The easiest way to embed Google Docs in any HTML page or blog post is using iframe.

Every Google Docs files are assigned with unique URL as an identifier. So we’ll need this unique identifier in order to embed it to any HTML pages.

1. Get the unique URL. Open any Google Docs file. To get the URL, you have to publish the files to public. From the top right of that page, click on ‘Share‘ -> ‘Publish As Web Page‘. New page will be opened. Click on the ‘Publish Document’ button. You’ll see the message saying the document has been published such as below.

Your document is publicly viewable at:
http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dcrwnphc_255dc6vhnf6

2. We’ll use iframe in order to embed the URL above. This iframe code is taken from Google blog.  Copy URL above and replace the red font color code below. You can set the parameters such as width, length and frame border to suit your page. Learn more about iframe.

Gmail can tell you the sender time zone and current time

This new Gmail Labs feature is very useful if you ever work with people from different regions. You want to reply to them, but you want them to read this immediately while they’re in front of computer, instead of stack up on him mailbox, and only being read when they comeback tomorrow morning.

That’s how Sender Time Zone will be able to assist you.

sender time zone Gmail can tell you the sender time zone and current timeOnce you enable it from Gmail Labs , all emails in  mailbox will have additional information called ‘sender-time’ once you ‘click ‘show detail’.

So now you know when this email has been sent and the time over there now. So do you still want to call them in the middle of the night??
