With the launch of the GMail Labs last week, GOOG has already started rolling out the first set of what Labs has to offer. To enable Labs, go to Settings, and then the Labs Tab. You’ll get a list of the available tweaks and all you need to do is enable them as you wish. GMail Blog has given the description of a few of them. I am including the ones not mentioned in the Blog.

1.Fixed Width Font: Adds an option to the reply dropdown menu that lets you view a message in fixed width font.

2. Highly Recommended: Mouse Gestures: Use your mouse to navigate with gestures. Hold right-click and move the mouse left to go to a previous conversation, move it right to go to the next conversation, and move up to go back to the inbox view. Works best on Windows.

Screenshot after the jump, click to expand.

3.Signature Tweaks: Places your signature before the quoted text in a reply, and removes the “–” line that appears before signatures. Can’t use this and the “Random signature” Labs feature at the same time.

4.Random signature:Rotates among random quotations for your email signature. Can’t use this and the “Signature tweaks” Labs feature at the same time.

5.Custom Date Formats:Adds options to the general settings page allowing the date and time format to be changed independent of language. For example, you can use a 24-hour clock (14:57) or show dates with the day first (31/12/07).

6.Old Snakey:Kick it old school with Old Snakey! Enable keyboard shortcuts and hit ‘&’ from the main page to play a game of snake.

7.Email Addict:Lets you take a break from email and chat by blocking the screen for fifteen minutes and making you invisible in chat.

8.Hide Unread counts:Hides the unread counts for inbox, labels, etc.
