Gmail is a free search-based email service that combines the features of email with Google’s search technology and supplies more than 7GB of free storage space.
It has launched a raft of new features this year through Gmail Labs, such as a take-back button for undoing a ‘send’ command. This tool holds the email for five seconds after you have pressed the send button and allows retrieval.
According to web monitoring company ComScore, more than 113 million use the service worldwide every month.
