Status of Gmail Labs
Gmail Labs was released nine months ago, designed to provide users important new ideas out. Jackson explained, "When Gmail is still very small, it is easy to launch a new experimental feature, we do not have to consider supporting a large user base." But now, Gmail's user base is so huge, so Jackson's team required a new ways to enhance the function of Gmail to make it survive in the forward position in today's communications. The Google Gmail Labs is a magic weapon.
In June 2008 with the launch of Gmail Labs features 13. Currently, Gmail Labs has more than 40 features, including links to the letter preview YouTube, Picasa, Yelp and Flickr content, mail goggles and web pages of the "Snake" game.

Google is considered the "test" terminology to the public on the current Internet, it has become the standard in innovative products, even if the products are a sophisticated tests will be put up this sign.
Lot of people think, Gmail is a mature, solid product, there is no need to test again on the banner. In response, Jackson explained, "treated like all other Google products, our requirements for this product is very high. We have not yet ready to abandon the test, because we are still some things to do, once we achieve higher request, we will abandon the test. "
Gmail look like Google products forgotten corner of the world. But Jackson said that any use of the product of individual users, and even enterprise users, Gmail is fairly stable, but should not decide to erase the signs of the key test lies in the fact that his team has not yet reached Gmail think part of the internal standard ( precise, should be the demands of the users).
