Gmail Hint

If you’re using dialup or a slow DSL connection, you might be happier using Gmail’s older version, as it’s much faster on a slow connection.  Click the link to “Older version” on the upper right of the Gmail toolbar.

After that page has loaded, you can drag the icon from your Firefox address bar onto the Bookmarks Toolbar to create a quick link.  Also, to minimize space used on the toolbar, you can right-click the bookmark icon and choose “Properties,” then change the name to something short or, if the icon is recognizable on its own, delete the name altogether.

Thanks, Bill, that will help!

Thank you so much! My gmail has been making everything so slow recently and I wasnt sure what the big change was, but this helped tremendously!

What Do You Think?
