NO MORE INTOXICATED EMAILS

GOOGLE'S EMAIL SERVICE HAS A NEW TOOL TO PREVENT YOU FROM SENDING DRUNKEN EMAILS:

Are you familiar with the term "drunk dial"? --Basically, drunk dialing is what it's called when you've had a few too many drinks . . . and you decide to make an ill-advised phone call (--usually to an ex) that you probably wouldn't make if you were sober.

Anyway, on Monday, the geniuses over at Google announced they'll be adding a new tool to their email service (--which is called Gmail) . . . which will help prevent users from sending drunken emails. According to the company, the "Mail Goggles" feature will be activated at night and on weekends . . . when people are most likely to be wasted . . . and will require users to answer five math problems in one minute in order to send an email.
(--OK, say what you will about Google and their obvious quest for world domination . . . but this is pretty brilliant, if you ask me.) (Yahoo News)
