Mail j. Logging into Google mail: analysis of a number of issues

The opening of Gmail email from Google was initially perceived by many Internet users as an April Fool's joke. After all, the launch date of the service fell precisely on April 1, 2004. Rumors about the emergence of Google's second serious project after the creation of the search engine alarmed the Internet community literally the day before. But despite the “mixed” opinions, this event heralded the era of a new generation of online mail. Today, more than 1 billion people from all over the world, when establishing communications with friends, comrades, and business partners, say: “Send a letter to my Gmail, here is the address...”.

The development of the electronic service took three years. Paul Buckheit, the author of the project, began work in August 2001 at the direction of Google management. However, according to Buchheit, he made the first developments of online mail without a system application back in 1996.

During the creation process, Google's email service was given the name Cariobu. It was named after the utility Buckheit created for searching for letters in his own mail. Actually, at that time this function was a proprietary feature of Gmail (now there are much more of them).

For the first two months, Paul worked on the email code on his own. And then with assistants. By 2004, the team of creators of the Google email service had grown to 10 people.

Throughout its history, Gmail has undergone various metamorphoses - both in code and in external design. Now he holds the honorary title of one of the best emails on the network.
