As of today, that same viewer now supports TIFF and Microsoft PowerPoint document formats too: you can now view TIFF and PPT files online, directly in your browser, without having to save the files to your computer and without needing to buy, install, or wait for any special software to start up.<br /><br />We've had a "<a href="http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=64603">View as slideshow</a>" option for PowerPoint files for a while; now we've integrated this conversion technology into the same viewer that we use for PDFs and TIFFs.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SfD2uN30bsI/AAAAAAAAAT8/E966Od93-dQ/s1600-h/ppt_viewer.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328029633037496002" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SfD2uN30bsI/AAAAAAAAAT8/E966Od93-dQ/ppt_viewer.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;"></a><br />This viewer provides a richer set of features than the old "View as slideshow" version: you can zoom in and out, select text to copy and paste, and "print" the presentation to a PDF document. And, unlike the old version, we no longer require you to have a Flash plugin installed on your browser.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SfD2yzfsl4I/AAAAAAAAAUE/KWjxIkFoteY/s1600-h/tiff.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328029711856342914" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SfD2yzfsl4I/AAAAAAAAAUE/KWjxIkFoteY/s400/tiff.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 186px; height: 48px;"></a><br />I don't know about you, but the TIFF files I receive are almost always multiple-page faxes -- and the default TIFF viewer on my computer only shows me the first page.

So with the aim of making search in Gmail easier, we built a new experimental feature in Gmail Labs: Search Autocomplete. <br /><br />Turn on Search Autocomplete from the <a href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&fs=1&view=pu&st=labs">Labs tab</a> under Gmail Settings, and you'll get suggestions as you type in the search box. One of the most popular searches in Gmail is for names or email addresses, so the first kind of suggestions you'll see are contacts. Some names are not easy to remember (my last name is an excellent example!) — with this new Labs feature you can just type a couple letters and select the desired contact from the drop down list. Easy and quick as that.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaI5sVgLI/AAAAAAAAATE/8LhNAnuAAxg/s1600-h/search_autocomplete_contacts.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319835431315275954" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaI5sVgLI/AAAAAAAAATE/8LhNAnuAAxg/search_autocomplete_contacts.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;"></a><br /><br />Gmail also offers a bunch of <a href="http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=7190&topic=12796">advanced search operators</a>, which provide a powerful way to find that one message you have in mind. You can search in specific places (e.g. in chats or sent items), or search for messages with attachments of a certain type (e.g. docs or photos). Suppose I want to search for photos that were sent to me by my friend Chris. Normally, I would have to enter Chris' email address followed by <span style="font-family:courier;">filename:(jpg OR png)</span>, which I gladly admit is even a bit too geeky for me. With Search Autocomplete, I can just type "photos" or "pictures," select "has photos" from the drop down list (as in the screenshot below), and the search query (<span style="font-family:courier;">filename:(jpg OR png)</span>) gets inserted for me. Similarly, you can type in the word "attachment" and Search Autocomplete will list the most common attachment types for you. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaYcyvF5I/AAAAAAAAATM/IHbB2KV72Hw/s1600-h/search_autocomplete_operators.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319835698435397522" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaYcyvF5I/AAAAAAAAATM/IHbB2KV72Hw/search_autocomplete_operators.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;"></a><br /><br />One of the reasons we still show you the geeky search query is to allow you to adapt it to your needs.

So with the aim of making search in Gmail easier, we built a new experimental feature in Gmail Labs: Search Autocomplete. <br /><br />Turn on Search Autocomplete from the <a href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&fs=1&view=pu&st=labs">Labs tab</a> under Gmail Settings, and you'll get suggestions as you type in the search box. One of the most popular searches in Gmail is for names or email addresses, so the first kind of suggestions you'll see are contacts. Some names are not easy to remember (my last name is an excellent example!) — with this new Labs feature you can just type a couple letters and select the desired contact from the drop down list. Easy and quick as that.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaI5sVgLI/AAAAAAAAATE/8LhNAnuAAxg/s1600-h/search_autocomplete_contacts.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319835431315275954" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaI5sVgLI/AAAAAAAAATE/8LhNAnuAAxg/search_autocomplete_contacts.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;"></a><br /><br />Gmail also offers a bunch of <a href="http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=7190&topic=12796">advanced search operators</a>, which provide a powerful way to find that one message you have in mind. You can search in specific places (e.g. in chats or sent items), or search for messages with attachments of a certain type (e.g. docs or photos). Suppose I want to search for photos that were sent to me by my friend Chris. Normally, I would have to enter Chris' email address followed by <span style="font-family:courier;">filename:(jpg OR png)</span>, which I gladly admit is even a bit too geeky for me. With Search Autocomplete, I can just type "photos" or "pictures," select "has photos" from the drop down list (as in the screenshot below), and the search query (<span style="font-family:courier;">filename:(jpg OR png)</span>) gets inserted for me. Similarly, you can type in the word "attachment" and Search Autocomplete will list the most common attachment types for you. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaYcyvF5I/AAAAAAAAATM/IHbB2KV72Hw/s1600-h/search_autocomplete_operators.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319835698435397522" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_JE4qNpFW6Yk/SdPaYcyvF5I/AAAAAAAAATM/IHbB2KV72Hw/search_autocomplete_operators.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;"></a><br /><br />One of the reasons we still show you the geeky search query is to allow you to adapt it to your needs.
