Google is, of course, a massive organization. Maybe a steady flow of change annoucements should not surprise us. At present, however, they're coming thick and fast as Google works to integrate a collection of disparate products and services into what looks something like a seemless whole. Today it's the turn of Gmail. I'll not go into the details here but can say that the changes are not going to be forced down the throats of Gmail users against their will overnight. Chris Taylor wrote at Mashable today:
For now, at least, the new features will be opt-in — and not all of us will be able to access them immediately. “If you like what you see, over the next few days you’ll be able to switch to the new look by clicking on Switch to the new look in the bottom-right of Gmail,” writes Google user experience designer Jason Cornwell.So let's wait and see. This week's changes to Google Reader have not gone down well with a lot of users. I wonder how the Gmail changes will fare.
