Last week, I was travelling and I could not connect to the internet. Twitter has become a part of my life that whenever I find something interesting, I tweet regarding it. Since I could access email on my mobile phone anytime, I found twittermail.com very useful. Thanks to twittermail.com, I could now send an email to tweet. There is no need to create a log-in to use their services.

Twitter will then prompt you to either allow or deny access to your account.
Once you have allowed access, you will be taken to the settings page.
Click on Twittermail settings tab. Enter your secret email address to which you will send an email to tweet.

Undo Send in Gmail

Sometimes you realize you had sent the mail to the wrong person or you have missed to attach a file. Turn on Undo Send in Gmail Labs under Settings, and you’ll see a new “Undo” link on every sent mail confirmation. Click “Undo,” and Gmail will grab the message before it’s sent and take you right back to compose.

This feature can’t pull back an email that’s already gone; it just holds your message for five seconds so you have a chance to hit the Undo button.
