With Gmail approaching a decade, here’s how it has evolved
It’s hard to believe that it’s already been over 9 years since Gmail was opened up in beta. When it was first launched, many thought it was an April Fool’s Day joke because it was launched April 1, 2004. Some joke, eh?
The funny part is that it stayed in beta for over five years, so if that qualifies as a joke, then good on Google. Here’s an infographic that shows the timeline. Are you on Gmail?
Gmail launched in beta before 2004. I don’t recall what year but I had an account in my university days and I graduated in 2003.
