It's time to dive into the history of Gmail... but it didn't start with Google at all... In fact, it started very differently... Purrfectly, some might say. On this episode we discuss the strange phenomenon of Garfield Mail, the original Gmail. Then we pitch some ideas for making email better, reminisce about products from Google's past, get into movies in the MouthGarf Report, and play a rousing game of I See What You Did There.
