Have you tried Gmail Blue?

Web 2.0 Technology

If you love the color blue, or Michael Johnson’s song “Bluer than Blue,” or you’re just simply blue, you might want to try Gmail Blue. On April 1, the 9th year of Gmail, Google introduced the revolutionary Gmail Blue which took six years in development.  In Gmail Blue, everything is blue. According to Google, the Compose button is blue, the word Compose is blue, and even the Bold, Italic, and Underline buttons are blue. They said that they choose blue because brown was a  disaster.  Watch the video below to know more about the epic changes made in Gmail Blue.

Yes, this maybe sound like an April Fool’s day joke (grin), but there’s actually a Google Chrome extension for Gmail Blue if you want to try it out.  I have not tried it out though.
