Gmail Goggles: No More Drunk Emailing on Friday Nights

One more feature introduced by GMail.

But I am not sure, whether do we really need this or not.

Let us wait and see.

This feature is very cool, I didn’t know Google offers this spam feature. It means that I can leave this service on so everybody has to enter the math questions.

Cool

I like it :) What’s next though? A breathalizer to be able to send emails!?

I can’t believe someone got paid to create this widget. Complete BS. If you have something to say to someone, then man up and say it. Don’t hide behind your email.

Getting drunk is COMPLETELY the best way to ‘man up’, right Jay? Psh. This was more than likely created by a google employee during their 20% time or by someone else who knows first hand about how drunk emailing can fuck ya up, so don’t be so negative.

There goes engineering R&D Dept. :)

it’s just a funny joke. no reason to get all bent out of shape.

lol

This is great! I could have used this back in the day!

Haha, Joel doesn’t get it at all. It’s not an anti-spam feature…

It’s a good idea. I know a few people that would benefit from this on a Friday night.

This is a great idea. Someone should apply this to text messaging. That tends to be what gets me into hot water.

I saw this either announced or unveiled on April Fools Day. I assumed it was a prank. Either the poster fell for it (and so did all us commenters), or somebody at Google saw the practicality of it and made it work, if it didn’t before. Or April is more of a blur to me than I thought.

This is great! Now if someone would make an app like this for my cell phone. I keep calling Paris when I get trashed.

I could have used this last week. Now if only someone would invent a Drunk posting blocker. I wouldn’t spend the next morning mad at myself for posting illegible nonsense.

Proteus:
There is a similar feature in denmark for drunk-dialing. You can set it up before you go out so that you wont be able to call or sms certain numbers from your phone until the next morning. It’s proven to be very popular. :-)

if only someone could come up with something similar to stop my friend sending me pictures of his willy on his phone when he gets drunk!

Funny… I remember the funny captcha which had integral calculus to be solved… :D

Yeah matt,

After reading again I found it was not an anti-spam feature, am I bad or what? Well we all make mistakes.

Thanks for your notice!

Somebody needs to make something like this a requirement for posting dumb comments on news stories. I suggest a brief IQ test before a post can be made. Might have kept this post off the board…

Good service launched by google.
If there was same feature for msn chat. I will be more happy but to implement that it might be very hard.

Google adds a test to make sure you aren t too drunk to send this email to avoid regretting it in the morning hehe

Great, another way for people to get drunk and not have to worry about being held accountable for their decisions!

It’s definitely real, its as easy as following the instructions in the post to test it.

hmmmm…I would get out a calculator though. Plus Would it stop me mailing on my gmail on my iphoen when activated through pop3?

i can do math in my dreams. goggles didn’t stop me. I hope she didn’t mind…

My ex ex boyfriend now my friend once wrote me a very drunken budbling email but at that time i din`t know until he apologize because of this, …now he`s still writting short msgs ..really confuse me …the funny thing this only happen when he`s drunk , haha.. He needs this very urgent!!!!!

I am too drunk right now, but I’ll post this comment even if I may regret it later.
