Google may Spruce up Gmail

Google may Spruce up Gmail Google has been silently working on spicing up the look of its web services lately. After Google Images, is it the chance of Google's mailing service Gmail to get a facelift? 


In a Chrome OS bug report, Google Operating System blog spotted the new Gmail interface in a Gmail Inbox image with slew of new features. However, we believe that it might be just a version of an internal mail available only to Google employees. Nevertheless, let's go ahead and analyze what we can find.


In the Gmail screenshot, we can see three links - Mail, Contacts, Tasks clubbed together on the top left side of the page. Below them is big Compose Mail button no more a link followed by the usual options Inbox, Buzz, Sent Mail, and other options. Since Gmail allows linking two accounts in one, there's one drop down button to see the updates about the other mail account. 

Just below the Chat box, there's a Call phone button which might be Google Voice integration. 




These screenshots, however, don't confirm if Google will bring all these features in Gmail. Maybe, over a period of time, we'll start noticing these features on our Gmail page. There's no official word on this update as yet. So, we'll have to wait and watch.


What other feature would you like to see in your Gmail? Leave us a comment and let us know.
