Its been about 5 years since I first starting using gmail and about 2 since I have been using it exclusively. It was the product that was, in my mind, a foreverbeta. It seemed like Google was never going to release the product and remove that pesky beta tag.
Google suprised me, pleasantly, today when they updated their blog:
Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs and Google Talk — both enterprise and consumer versions — are now out of beta. “Beta” will be removed from the product logos today, but we’ll continue to innovate and improve upon the applications whether or not there’s a small “beta” beneath the logo. Indeed, today we’re also announcing some other Google Apps features that we think will appeal to large enterprises: mail delegation, mail retention and ongoing enhancements to Apps reliability.
