ajarmoniuk··on A preview of Gmail’s new look
I, for one, don't welcome the new look. The old overal Google look given an air of unrefined, raw 'geekness'. I liked the feeling that I was using something designed and made by scientists rather than enterpreneurs. This is, saldy, finally going and Google is becoming one of many.

Of course look is not all, the quality of service they provide is uncompared. I'm still a fan, but I really prefered the old days.

I haven't been using f.lux since I learned about the flaw - it would only work with one of my monitors on Ubuntu Maverick (or Lucid, I don't remember now).
