Not to mention that for the first few months, none of my friends had an account. So even though I wanted to Wave, I couldn't really do it. Once a few of my friends joined in, we thought we could plan our road-trips etc. on it easily and sha

I've asked the GMail team repeatedly for a way to tag messages while I'm composing them. It saves many clicks after sending -> go to sent mail, select the message, apply a label, go back to inbox. It seems like a great value-add for the
