Ah 2009…turning five, finally shedding that beta label, and adding more than 40 new features. As we wind down after a busy year, here’s a look back at a handful of our favorite additions to Gmail. We hope you enjoy trying them out as much as we enjoyed building them.
- Tasks, onto your phone and out of Labs
- An improved mobile experience, including push Gmail and a complete redesign
- Four new themes to make Gmail sparkle
- Offline Gmail and its graduation from Labs
- Drag and drop labels
- More fast previews, including PowerPoint and TIFF
- Multi-select attachments for faster, smoother file sharing
- A way to eliminate duplicate contacts with a single button
- More storage for less moolah
- Lots of new labs experiments, including undo send, automatic message translation, and “Got the wrong bob?“
On behalf of the entire Gmail team, happy holidays! See you next year.

good! i like this.
Anyone know if there is a new version (J2ME) coming anytime soon? There are a couple of obvious things missing which I’m sure are eventually going to come. (label functionality, edit contacts, signature lab that doesn’t work on mobile to name a few). Don’t get me wrong, 2.0.6 is great, but a few more functional elements would be nice.
