Anyone besides me notice how K()()L the "auto save draft" feature in
gmail is?
even gives you the last time your message was saved. I guess it is
called a draft, because it really is just a draft, until you hit the
send button ;)

where have ya been...? auto save has been hereabouts a bit of time!

i would myself like to see a clock on the page somewhere that tells me
that i will have to log on again soon so i dont have to go thru a lot
of girations to save a document that isnt caught in auto draft...
red yellow green on that clock?
or the screeen should dim or change if time is getting close to
re-signing on...
the clock is there somewhere... just let us SEEEEEEE it....

the copy/paste and then signing on and then going back to where you
were and pasting to get back in step is a nuisance....auto save ONLY
works if one is signed on you see......

What?  Are you saying that you are getting randomly signed out?  I have never had a problem with Gmail signing me out for any other reason than me clicking Sign Out.

i would guess it is about every 24 hours....
it used to be
that i never was OFF....
but of late i am asked to refresh with a log in and i do swear the
signinGODS know that i am drafting a long, really LONG LONG email!
and that dramatic exclamation point effort to ZEROin on the SEND button
is totally WASTED when i have to do all the other gyrations!

still, i would like to see the COLORclock!

I'm sorry, I still don't understand what you are saying.  What is every 24 hours?
