Basically, it's all about a Gmail video created by the folks from the Googleplex in which the fans from all around the world are handing the Gmail logo from one another. All you need

to do is record yourself while you're forwarding the Gmail M-velope to somebody else and then upload the clip on the official page of the campaign. If you want to print the Google mail solution's logo, you can find it here in PDF format. "We'll be accepting clips until August 13th. We'll then take a selection of the submitted clips and edit them together into one final video, which we'll release to the world on August 20th," Bill Kee, Gmail Team, wrote today.

At this time, the Gmail employees created a sample video to show you how a video should look like and give you some simple tips for the Gmail logo forwarding. You're probably asking yourself what the connection between this campaign and the mail solution provided by the Mountain View company is. Well, the search giant describes this program as a way to connect the entire world.

"Well, you can see this as a symbol of how email connects people from all over, making the world feel a bit smaller. Or you could think of it as a metaphor for mail exchange servers, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), and all of the technical steps involved in getting a Gmail message around the world from one inbox to another. But, really, we just wanted to have a little fun," the Google employee added.

Gmail was released in 2004 and since then it was described as the best mail solution on the Internet as it offered the largest storage capacity ever implemented into a mail service. Recently, it was upgraded to a public beta, becoming free for all the consumers, allowing them to register for a new account in a matter of seconds.
