Google announces new Gmail Paper feature
GUOM and BimP reader Russell Champoux sent us this news tip from Google about their new Gmail Paper feature. Here’s what the Google Paper page has to say about this new service.
Everyone loves Gmail. But not everyone loves email, or the digital era. What ever happened to stamps, filing cabinets, and the mailman? Well, you asked for it, and it’s here. We’re bringing it back.
A New Button
Now in Gmail, you can request a physical copy of any message with the click of a button, and we’ll send it to you in the mail.Simplicity Squared
Google will print all messages instantly and prepare them for delivery. Allow 2-4 business days for a parcel to arrive via post.Total Control
A stack of Gmail Paper arrives in a box at your doorstep, and it’s yours to keep forever. You can read it, sort it, search it, touch it. Or even move it to the trash—the real trash. (Recycling is encouraged.)Keep it Secret, Keep it Safe
Google takes privacy very seriously. But once your email is physically in your hands, it’s as secure as you want to make it.
Sounds like Google has another hit on their hands with this new feature.
By the way, we’re pretty sure this is an April Fool’s joke. So just in case Google removes the pages tomorrow, simply click on the image in this post to see the entire page. We captured it for posterity just for our readers. When you read the text, it actually is pretty humorous.
