Default Mail Goggles - Stop sending mail you later regret
Quote:
Sometimes I send messages I shouldn't send. Like the time I told that girl I had a crush on her over text message. Or the time I sent that late night email to my ex-girlfriend that we should get back together. Gmail can't always prevent you from sending messages you might later regret, but today we're launching a new Labs feature I wrote called Mail Goggles which may help.

When you enable Mail Goggles, it will check that you're really sure you want to send that late night Friday email. And what better way to check than by making you solve a few simple math problems after you click send to verify you're in the right state of mind?

By default, Mail Goggles is only active late night on the weekend as that is the time you're most likely to need it. Once enabled, you can adjust when it's active in the General settings.

Hopefully Mail Goggles will prevent many of you out there from sending messages you wish you hadn't. Like that late night memo -- I mean mission statement -- to the entire firm.

It was actually on the morning national news... I thought it was pretty funny (and maybe not a bad idea). Too bad there's not a VBulletin plugin

Could do with that on your phone.

I did hear of such a service in some European country, where before you went out, you could register for the service and tell them to block certain numbers from your phone and such so that you were unable to call or text certain people when out ******.

A big guy comes around to your house, stands there looking intimidating and shakes his head in disapproval.

NO!
