The Gmail Notifier is a downloadable Windows application that alerts you when you have new Gmail messages. It displays an icon in your system tray to let you know if you have unread Gmail messages, and shows you their subjects, senders and snippets, all without your having to open a web browser.

System Requirements

To use the Gmail Notifier, you need Windows 2000, Windows XP, or a more recent version of Windows.

works great.. but one thing.. does anyone know if this would slow down my connection ( on 56k playing games )

i'm not sure if its just my ISP or what but lately my internet has been really slow..
(before i got this thingo ) i'll post another topic anyways

i downloaded the one for FIREFOX, it good, so i dont have to type the website, and login to see if i have mail or not, notifier lets me know that!

I think it probably does slow down the internet if your using other things that access the internet.. Especially on a 56K modem. ....

I think I might give that a go. I use Firefox, and Gmail is handy to have open all the time because it automatically refreshes when you have a new message, but the toolbar would be handier.

I'll see how it performs under my 56k connection, and under Firefox.
