Google addresses 'drunk e-mailing'
Those brilliant jokers at Google Labs -- responsible for nearly all of Google's best ideas, including Maps, Gmail and some of the best April Fool's jokes on the 'Net -- have come out with another as ironically useful as it is hysterically funny -- Mail Goggles.
This new mail feature disables -- or at least discourages -- users from sending drunk e-mails they may later regret to ex-boyfriend and/or co-workers. Depending on the set time of night, users are asked to answer increasingly difficult math problems to confirm the sending of an e-mail.
Come on now, we've all been there! No word on whether Google's Android OS will be able to stop the drunk dials, too.
