Gmail Theme and the weather

Sunday, December 7th, 2008

Gmail now offers different themes to make your emailing experience look nicer.

And there seem to be a nice feature in there. After you select a theme it asks you for you location.

After that you local weather can be a part of your theme.

I use the bus stop theme and most times it shows me a giraffe with a long long neck but then this week it was raining and there where the umbrellas. And today it snows lots and guess what there now is a big Snowman and some people at the bus stop with snowboards, penguins and of course hats and mits.

So isn’t this the perfect way of making you computer behave like your real world?
