I've discovered something else to love about Gmail. Any Hotmail (or Blogger) user out there want to take a stab at how many times they've typed a lengthy e-mail (or blog), only to have the system 'fart' and lose the whole damn thing in the process of sending (or posting)? Well, Gmail is smart - if there's a system fart, it displays a popup box saying, "Oops, the system could not complete the operation. Please try again in a few seconds." Right on top of the screen with your mail! Click OK, try once again to send, and it's done... all without you losing your labor of love!

(...My solution to the Hotmail problem, by the way, was to highlight and copy before I ever clicked Send. Then, if it did fart, I could just paste the e-mail back in. Another idea is to write the mail in Microsoft Word first. Or to use Outlook. See? Look at all these ideas! Am I good or what?)
