Gmail Adds 5 Second Delay – Undo Send
Gmail has given birth to a brand new feature in Gmail Labs Undo Send. This cool new feature delays the sending of your email for 5 seconds allowing you to click an undo link to seemingly “unsend” the email. Maybe you emailed the wrong person, forgot an attachement or noticed an important detail missing as you saw the email sending – now you can click undo and you will be sent back to the Compose window for that email as if you had never sent it.

Gmail is cooler in the cloud. Literally. Google’s point is that cloud-based services (which are ever more popular) use less energy than their traditional counterparts.
