Gmail's New Look

    Do you like the new look of Gmail?

    In the new look they tried to give more attention to the "Contacts and Task" that's why they placed those links on the top on the left sidebar.

    The new look seems OK to me but the only thing they did not do right is moving the links "Unread, Starred...etc" to the drop down menu :(

    Now to select Unread emails we have to go to drop down menu first and from there select the Unread option.

    What are your views about the new look?

    Don't like it much so I reverted it back to the way it was. Don't like the black fonts and the way it made me feel awkward with the new left sidebar.

    I don't like the new looks either. So, I use 'HTML mode' for fast access to my emails.

    The features that I need are still there though relocated. Guess google is experimenting some usability. Furthermore, what matters most to me is the speed. This new gmail interface still has the speed that I used to enjoy so I still have no bad words for the service.

    It can be found on the upper left corner of your gmail or on the footer links below. 'Switch to old version'.

    Not a big change or update which effects or improves the Gmail service. I find the same as before.

    i hope the new look is more flexible in terms of usability and they have included more options when we look into the header options. Easy to compose and access Tasks.

    The new look most probably doesnt make difference to me.
    But I always appreciate new things :)

    I like the changes. The only minor point for me is you now have to make two clicks to check all the unread emails.

    Those who are using older version of Gmail here is the message from Google to them

    At the end you will have to accept the latest version.
