Google’s Time Traveling Email

Gmail Custom Time

Back to the Future Car

Announced yesterday, Google will release Gmail Custom Time. Users will now be able to send messages with a custom time stamp. This feature will be great when forgetting to send that special someone a cheap e-card, or when you forget to tell your boss about your fishing trip I mean your planned-for-months family event.

According to Google’s website, they will utilize an “an e-flux capacitor to resolve issues of causality.” Also, mentioned is the Grandfather paradox, but that does not seem like too much of an issue since you can only send an email up to four years ago.

User will only get 10 Custom Time emails per year, however. Google has done extensive research to discover that if people started sending more than ten Custom Time emails per year, everyone else would lose faith in accuracy of the time stamp. The complex equation is explained below for our more left-brained visitors:

8 Thoughts on “Google’s Time Traveling Email”

  1. I DON’T SEE WHY NOBODY ELSE HAS COME UP WITH THIS BEFORE. IT SEEMS EASY ENOUGH TO EDIT A TIMESTAMP.

  2. It isn’t actually that easy to edit since most servers put their own time stamp when mail arrives. I am quite amazed that they did this.

  3. You guys don’t get it. It is April Fool’s Day.

  4. Actually guys all of the Google website have pranks on them today.

  5. Yes, obviously, it was a prank by Google. I think Gmail should, however, have a feature where a message is sent at a specific time. One can currently do this in Outlook and Gmail is so much better, so why not?
