Comments on: Text Messaging Added to GChat – Could Be Better! http://www.unlikelywords.com/2008/12/10/text-messaging-added-to-gchat-could-be-better/ A blog with delusions of grandeur Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:21:52 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: APik http://www.unlikelywords.com/2008/12/10/text-messaging-added-to-gchat-could-be-better/comment-page-1/#comment-106656 APik Fri, 12 Dec 2008 17:22:43 +0000 http://www.unlikelywords.com/?p=2055#comment-106656 I was actually more excited about the other new Google Labs feature for Gmail: Tasks. I'm not sure why it's over on the right side, but the auto-nesting with the tab button is sweet, as is the hierarchy of completion, etc. If they add priorities I will be pleased. I was also a little surprised to see that they used a "folder" structure instead of tags, but that's no big deal. I was actually more excited about the other new Google Labs feature for Gmail: Tasks.

Phones have email addresses that you can email, like #@mobile.att.com etc. But if you want to use these, you need to know which carrier your friend has. I was hoping this was how Google would do it. You send a text, Google figures out which carrier your friend has, sends the text, and then when they respond, it's an email from their phone instead of a text/chat...
