The Gmail Meter
Cool, I love data. But what kind of nonsense tool is this? You have to open a new Google Doc Spreadsheet, then find the menu item to install a tool, then find the right script.
!?
Even after I did all that, it just hung on “installing” for 30 minutes.
As one friend said to me, “I am convinced the Gmail team is purposefully baiting you here.”
It worked!
As an aside, the Gmail Blog look and functionality remains horribly craptastic.
Update: As Matthew Panzarino points out, this tool isn’t actually made by Google, but rather by a “Google Apps Script Top Contributor”. Still not convinced they’re not trolling me here.
