I've already forgotten what the old version of Gmail was like.
I've been updated for three days, and I don't remember never having faces to the left of all my conversations. Then I get an email from someone without a Face, it seems strange and alien. I wonder where their face is when I get an email without one.
It seems strange to me, 3 days after Faces started to become a part of my daily emailing.
The Internet has changed a lot in the last year. Every experiment that I did last year? I automatically assume that the results are void. The only experiments that I trust are the ones that I'm doing now.
3 days ago, it was okay to not have my face show up in your email. Today? It seems weird.
Experiment with getting your face next to your email address in Gmail. It's a simple change, one that changes everything.
