Undo send with Gmail for avoiding sending emails you might regret!

Here is a scenario. You have an argument with your boss and you really lost your cool. You went home had a couple of beers and wrote down an email to your boss telling him exactly what you felt about him in a very colorful language. Now after clicking on ‘Send’ you get this sinking feeling. You wish you could go back 10 seconds and avoid sending that email.

I bet some developers at Gmail did this quite often and hence decided to create ‘Undo Send’. :-)It is one of my favorite now since Gmail allowed multiple account sign-in.

How to get Undo Send with Gmail?

§ This option still a beta feature with Gmail and hence is available with Gmail Labs. Just click on Settings on the right hand top corner and then look up the Labs tab.

§ Here look up Undo Send and select Enable. Save the changes at the bottom of the Labs page.

§ Visit the General tabs settings and define the amount of time you want before which you can cancel an email. The most time allowed is 30 seconds.

How to Undo a mail?

Okay, once you have sent a mail there is an option to undo it highlighted in red at the top. Click on it immediately and then mail is not send. ;-)

Use this feature to avoid sending emails which to wrong recipients or incase you have written something you wish you had not. But Undo Send should be used as absolute last resort. From a professional point of view think before you click on send. :-)

Keep track of webpage changes which does not have RSS


Some pages on the internet are made by people who do not really want to engage with other proactively. As a blogger you cannot image someone writing a blog or creating a website without any RSS feeds. Most websites which are popular absolutely support RSS feeds but sometimes some websites which I might feel important and want to follow changes to do not have RSS feeds. :-(

This is where I liked Change Detection a website to keep updated about changes.

Features of Change Detection

§ Just enter the name of the website which you want to monitor changes to and also enter the email address to which the alert is sent.

§ Practical use can be to actually monitor a change of policy in a company or stay updated if a software you are using has newer version. ;-)

§ It can also double up as Google alert but I have not tested it much. Still feel Google alerts works great.

Previously I had written about how to use Google Reader to create rss feeds of any page which can also be used to monitor a website and changes it has. Change Detection is better in the sense I do not need to your Google Reader! :-D

Do you monitor any website without RSS? Do let me know your views through your comments.
