Offline gmail – New in google Labs

Google is always setting out to include new stuff into their already existing huge features.In addition the latest information is that they now provide an opportunity for accessing gmail while offline.

In order to make use of this feature,we need to install Google Gears .Google gears is an open source software which enables storing data locally in a database.Also it enables web applications to communicate with desktop.Gears will download emails onto your desktop, and it will accumulate any actions that need web access to perform them next time you are connected to the net.

Once Google Gears is installed, we can see an Offline option under the Lab tab in Gmail’s settings. Choose Enable next to Offline gmail. Click the option “Save Changes”. Once the browser is reloaded, an ‘Offline 0.1’ link appears in the top-right corner of the main Gmail window where you will be asked to click this link to begin the installation.
