New Gmail Custom Time – Be on Time. Every Time

by Kyle Hayes on April 1st, 2008

Ever wish you could go back in time and send that crucial email that could have changed everything — if only it hadn’t slipped your mind? Gmail can now help you with those missed deadlines, missed birthdays and missed opportunities.

Pre-date your messages
You tell us what time you would have wanted your email sent, and we’ll take care of the rest. Need an email to arrive 6 hours ago? No problem.

Mark as read or unread
Take sending emails to the past one step further. We let you make emails look like they’ve been read all along.

Make them count
Use your custom time stamped messages wisely — each Gmail user gets ten per year.

Worry less
Forget your finance reports. Forget your anniversary. We’ll make it look like you remembered.

  1. I don’t know how I "feel" about this service. I love being able to create emails in advance, and I think they should not limit the number of these you can create per year. But using the system to spoof an older email, and pre-mark it as read…that does not sound very ethical, and will be abused by some.

  2. Heh, congratulations, Troy, you fell for Google’s April Fool’s prank :-D

  3. [Shhhhhh! I was just playing along!]

  4. mmhmm sure you were ;-)
