G-Mailto, found at Gmail tools, is a way to allow mailto: links to open a Gmail compose window when clicking the link-class.

The developer describes it as obsolescent due to Google’s Gmail Notifier, but given that the Notifier is Windows-only, I’m thinking obsolescent is not a correct description.

Although, in the wake of yesterday’s amusing rollout of 2gb of email storage on the service, who knows what other widgets are impending?

Lessee now, I have 50 invites, which is 100gb, and a 70gb HD about to fail, so I can set up a GFS drive. I can back everything up — in seventy or eighty hours.
