Section: Communications, Email / IM, Web, Websites, Google Google recently updated Gmail with a few new additions that definitely makes things easier for the user. First, users can now drag files into the message area and it will automatically upload. The second update allows for users to send invitations right inside an email. Whether the file you wish to send is located on the desktop or in some hidden folder that takes forever to navigate to, fear no more, users can simply open up the containing folder and drag the file into the message box. However, this feature only works with Mozilla Firefox 3.6 and Google Chrome. The second feature is a pretty nifty one, assuming your friends share their calendars with you. Basically you can send an invitation to a friend based on their available time right from Gmail. No need to switch back and forth between Calendar and Gmail. The invitation is sent right in the body of the email and it will then be displayed on your calendar and your friend’s calendar.

Section: Computers, Mobile Computers, Gadgets / Other, Household, Miscellaneous Well, we knew it was coming eventually. Photo-leaks of Dell’s 7 and 10-inch tablets surface on Engadget’s home page today and they don’t look half bad. The very sleek now Streak tablets take a different approach to its design than the iPad did in one aspect. Instead of putting their logo (or home-button in Apple’s case) on the short side, Dell put it on the long side. This design aspect makes sense to me seeing as most monitors are wide-screen monitors these days. This brings the lineup of “Streak” tablets to three. The 5-inch version(or Mini 5 as it has been referred as previously) has been public for quite some time now and plans to be released later this summer. The 7-inch version is rumored to be out late this year and the 10-inch early 2011. So if you’re holding out for something non-Apple related, here it comes. I’m glad Dell’s finally bringing something to the table that is competitive with the iPad. With the combination of Dell and HP, hopefully Apple won’t take over the whole market which means good things for us, the consumers. With these tablets from Dell combined with the iPad, the HP slate, and a possible Google tablet there is a fair share of competition brewing. Who knows, maybe this healthy competition will spur Apple to finally let us replace the batteries on our own?
