"everyone already knows about Gmail" or "it's been around for a long time". And I whole-heartedly agree. However, why is it still in Beta? When are they going to release a "Production" version? I absolutely love Gmail, and I hope it stays for quite some time. In fact, I am waiting for some features to be added (like a Google Calendar), and maybe that's what Google is waiting for. Gmail is by far the best thing that has happened to e-mail, and I can't wait to see all the improvements Google will make to it over time. Fan-damn-tastic!!!!!

Several internal groups became interested in this application and wanted it for their own. I wanted to make sure our team got credit through a hidden Easter egg. A little JavaScript, some SweetAlert2 magic, and an old gaming console cheat code got the job done. ...
