in Germany… Sorry about the sensational headline:

Google’s introduction of the email service ‘Gmail’ already had a bad start. First the search machine hit the headlines in America for failing to register the trademark in time, and then followed a trademark dispute in Germany. As the name ‘Gmail’ is already registered in Germany in class 38 for electronic services, Google has now renamed its service. In Germany from now on the service will run under the name ‘Google Mail’.

I have been busy lately and didn’t get to post this when I first noticed it but GMail now offers a link at the top of each message that contains remotely referenced images allowing the images to be permanently allowed to load on a per email address basis. This is one of those DOH! features that I have sorely missed from my earlier, pre-GMail days.

Now I can see those Amazon images without explicitly clicking the GMail link to allow them to be loaded.

I don’t know about everyone else but I want my links. I have yet to receive the clips upgrade:

Well, its been 19 days since Google started rolling out Web Clips to some Gmail users, and many (myself included) are still waiting. Danny Sullivan just got it, and he’s got more information and screenshots. He reports that Web Clips comes with three feeds already subscribed to…
