Beer Goggles… Gmail Googles.. oh my

Google implements a tool to make sure you don't send off drunken stupid emails in the middle of the night.

Is this genius? This is such a creative concept that they call Mail Goggles.

Here is a quote from webware.com to give you the concept.

“When enabled, Mail Goggles kicks in at the time you specify (default is between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. on Friday and Saturday), and throws five math problems up on the screen when you press “send.” You have a limited period of time to solve them. If you can answer the questions, presumably you’re of mind sound enough to tell off your boss, or pour your heart out to your ex-lover. ”

I rarely email nowadays and barely use Gmail, but I’m going to consider turning it on just so I can practice my math. I tend to be very alert during these hours and can probably solve any problem that is presented to me. Just check out my Xbox live gamer score.
