Guess who’s Birthday is today!!

Today when i woke up, I was amused to see Gmail had changed their logo again. But this time I saw a cake with a number 5 candle on top of it. Hehe. April the 3rd happens to be Gmail’s birthday. It’s been 5 years since the giant Google shared to the world what was suppose to be an internal application, became a huge resourceful app that is now used by millions all over the world.

I remember my first time when I heard about Gmail. I was pretty comfortable using my hotmail account. Then I found out that there was a new email client that provided 1 gb worth of email space. Ooo I had to check this out and get my own account. After much pestering my friend into giving me an invite. I finally got one. And I’ve been using Gmail ever since!

So here’s wishing a Happy Birthday to Gmail. Who has made my email life so much easier and faster! You can read their post on Gmail Has Turned 5. But if you want a history recap. Read their days of of how it all started on their Gmail Press Release 2004.
