I discovered Gmail Notifier today while searching for a way to get my computer to play a sound when I get a new e-mail in my Gmail account. I like this little program they made just for that purpose. It also has another nice feature. See below for what I like and don't like about what this little gem can do.
Here are the two things I like about it:
1. It alerts me with a sound and a message in the lower right side of the screen when I have a new email in my Gmail account. This is something I've wanted for a long time.
2. I can set it so that when I click on a link to send an e-mail it opens a new Gmail e-mail instead of trying to open Outlook or Outlook Express (which I don't use anymore).
What it lacks:
1. It only checks for new e-mail once every two minutes. While I can still see if I have new e-mail if my Gmail is open in a tab, I'd prefer for the gadget to play a sound instantaneously when I get a new e-mail. But then again, it's free so I really can't complain.
