If you have the “Google Search” Labs feature enabled in Gmail, you will now see a small G icon in the compose window.  That pops out a search box you can use simultaneously.

This sounds like a hassle and a half, but Stephen Shankland’s got a story here on how to take Gmail to NSA-level security.  Or something.

Google Fanboy alert: the new Gmail T.  Can we get some color options, and maybe 3XL?  (These shirts run small; I am not the size of a Volvo.)  I highly recommend this shirt- softest shirt ever created on the planet.
