Oh boy, I'm excited! I am a HUGE fan of Google mail, but really loved the ability to have a preview pane in Outlook. That was probably the only thing I have missed from Outlook, but love so much else about Gmail, that I never really worried about it.
But, goodie, goodie, goodie! Google just announced a new Preview Pane View for Gmail and Google Apps Mail! I just enabled it, and wow! I can't express how cool it is. Yes, I get overly excited about geeky things like this - but this is going to save me a few seconds here and there hundreds of times a day. I LOVE things that will save me time.
You can read Google's blog post about the Preview Pane here. It shows some great screen shots of the new feature and explains how to enable it. It's just over in Labs.
Don't worry. If you enable it, and later decide it's not for you, you can simply click back to the old view. The lab adds a dropdown view option, so you can change your view to match your mood for the day! ;)
Let me know what you think of it. Do you prefer a preview view?
