Email Standards Project: Gmail Appeal

Posted by Mathew Patterson on April 9, 2008

Watch the video If you've been keeping up with the Email Standards Project you will know about our Project Gmail Grimace, where we asked designers to send us photos of themselves experiencing the frustration of designing for Gmail.

We gathered them all together, and created a short, fun little video to try and get the attention of the Gmail team. That video has been posted today, and we'd love for you all to go and check it out.

If you would like to help spread the message of the Email Standards Project, this is something you might blog about very easily, or send your designer friends too, it all helps.

Watch the 2008 Gmail Appeal video.
