Google Turns Back Time

Google released today the ability to turn back time. From the login screen:

“Ever wish you could go back in time and send that crucial email that could have changed everything — if only it hadn’t slipped your mind? Gmail can now help you with those missed deadlines, missed birthdays and missed opportunities.”

Now, as a wise man mentioned to me today “…so, doesn’t that go against Google’s mantra Do No Harm?” Well, I could argue that a missed oppertunity to do something right that slipped your mind could be helping one out. A stretch? Perhaps. I’m just stoked that I can start post-dating all those late reports I’ve been handing in (right, like I’d do a thing like that).

Be careful kids… since Google doesn’t want to disrupt the time continuum they are only allowing you to screwup 10 times a year… I wonder if I can steal the 10 from my kids email I set up for them.. hummmmm
