Gmail Shut Down? No, It Gets New Features!

Yesterday, it was rumored that Google might close the German version of Gmail because the local government wants to vote some laws that don't comply with Google's policies. Today, the mail solution gets another feature available straight from its interface that allows the users to configure and manage even reminders. Clicking on the link published near the Settings menu redirects the consumers to Google Calendar, allowing you to manage the reminders with ease.

"Wouldn't it be great to be able to keep track of all the events in your life, coordinate schedules with friends and family, and find new things to do - all with one online calendar? We thought so, too. We've added a bunch of new features to Google Calendar," the website says.

Basically, the new implementation between Google Calendar and Gmail sends notifications about the upcoming events straight into the email account, informing the users about the schedule.

Gmail is quite a popular email solution because since it was released, it suffered several updates that made it one of the best services on the Internet. For example, it first caught attention when it offered 1GB of storage size, a capacity that was never offered by a different solution. Also, it was then upgraded to 2GB, offering now no less than 2.8GB (and counting) of storage size.

At this time, Gmail is promoted as the most efficient email solution when it comes to spam messages because it owns several filters able to block unauthorized mail.

In addition, Gmail offers Gtalk, the possibility to communicate with your friends connected to the Google Talk network straight from the web-based interface. This interoperability seems to be a source of inspiration for the Sunnyvale rival as Yahoo Mail is now offering Yahoo Messenger to all the registered members of the service.
