- PicklePower, on 02/27/2009, -0/+130The upload progress indicator was a pleasant surprise for me this afternoon. Very nice!
- zTomer, on 02/27/2009, -1/+76Agh! Finally a status bar!! that's gonna make life so much easier and less stressful!
- runner108, on 02/27/2009, -6/+80I'd really like drag and drop.
- djstrat, on 02/27/2009, -0/+59THANK YOU GOOGLE!
- Kbiscu1t, on 02/27/2009, -0/+44Coincidentally, I uploaded 2 attachments at once today and noticed the nifty upload system and wondered why I never noticed it before. It's so seamless and awesome.
- ArmedRebel, on 02/27/2009, -3/+39Web 8.0 here we come!
- hrpmike, on 02/27/2009, -1/+31About time... Thank you Gmail for your wonderful service and my spam free inbox. I have not gotten 1 piece of junk mail in YEARS with Gmail.
- gilbes, on 02/27/2009, -1/+27Like the others, this uses Flash. And this is one of the only 3 times when Flash is actually useful.
1. For streaming low quality video (most of the time). Unfortunately the sever apps to do this properly are expensive.
2. For small games.
3. And flying in the face of its intended purpose, flash can be good when you don't see it* like this multiple file uploader with progress.
*Except in the case where sites use flash to store persistent, cross browser, cookies that any browser's privacy mode does not block, clearing cookies in the browser does not clear, and few people even know exist. You might be amazed that flash has co-opted your attempts to maintain your privacy. http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en ... - DyceFreak, on 02/27/2009, -3/+24I'd really like the ability to send exe's... I hate it when they assume that both everyone is an idiot, and everyone is going to attempt to send viruses to friends..
- aimhelix, on 02/27/2009, -1/+17Take that ZIP file!
- amirman, on 02/27/2009, -0/+15not if there's an exe in the zip, their servers will detect it. BUT i've noticed that if you zip it, rar it, then rename the extention it'll go through but WHAT A HUGE PAIN IN THE BUTT
- inactive, on 02/27/2009, -0/+14That took me by surprise. I was like, that was not there this morning was it? I had myself double guessing.
- dxchsdrgo, on 02/27/2009, -1/+14finally
- rolf, on 02/27/2009, -0/+138.0?! Was I in a coma before I woke up this morning >.> <.< What year is it?
- enterneo, on 02/27/2009, -0/+11now increase the attachment limit to 50MB.
- brownspank, on 02/27/2009, -0/+1020MB
- DyceFreak, on 02/27/2009, -1/+11you can send zips, but if they contain exe's, it will still block them. I used to use it as a work around, then they started to scan inside the archives... its asinine...
- alpha88, on 02/27/2009, -2/+12Yes, installing a new operating system that doesn't allow you to use any of the exes that you're trying to send, forcing you to find substitutes for everything is a perfectly logical way to "save yourself the trouble" of changing an extension name.
- rnawky, on 02/27/2009, -0/+10It uses flash instead of javascript....
- theOster, on 02/27/2009, -0/+9for those of us that sit at the comp with a worried look on our face and wringing our hands while sending an attachment
- gkzhang, on 02/27/2009, -0/+9Things to do after waking from coma:
Check Digg
Check Digg
Reconnect with family
Check Digg - csuftech, on 02/27/2009, -1/+9You can just rename the file to something like "fakeFile.exe_" and it will send it just fine. They just look at the extension so adding the underscore makes it ok. I have been doing this for years.
- inactive, on 02/27/2009, -0/+8what's the maximum file size permissible in Gmail?
- ToastPop, on 04/17/2009, -0/+8Keep in mind that GMail's file size cap is for sending, your recipient, such as all your friends who can't seem to give up Hotmail, will not be able to receive a message with a file that large.
- goodhorsehymn, on 02/27/2009, -0/+8Or 100mb and Gmail would be the ultimate filesharing app.
- elfprince13, on 02/27/2009, -0/+7you can only add one at a time, no multiple selection.
- elfprince13, on 02/27/2009, -0/+6I'm really glad about this, although, I was surprised....its in flash? or something of the sort, since I get the little adblock bubble next to it.
- jcardinal, on 02/27/2009, -1/+7digg that
- aceallways, on 02/27/2009, -0/+6Just use 7z, it doesn't check them
- disrupter, on 02/27/2009, -0/+6Make it 4GBs, KTHX
- gimpsta, on 02/27/2009, -1/+7Of course they had the ability to send multiple attachments all along, but not select them all at once. Did you guys even read the description?
- xGrill, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5Man, I thought the whole point of gmail's hardcore use of javascript was to get away from using the flash player?
- rolf, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5And she wanted to have your babies, you bastard!
- LiquidSpark, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5Can they add this to Google docs? That would be helpful.
- Frostman3D, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5Call me when I can email something with an .exe in it.
- BellaVitaGirl, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5*cheers*
It makes me so happy every time I realize that fact... - RexStJames, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5Are they rolling this out over time? Is there a particular reason it wouldn't work under (gnu/)Linux with Firefox 3? Is anyone else not getting it to work in their Gmail?
- sh0rtstop00, on 02/27/2009, -1/+6I immediately tested the new function out by uploading multiple porno pictures and send it to myself. Yup it works.
- svensksvamp, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5That means it's out of beta?
- dlan4327, on 02/27/2009, -0/+5For me the storage is still the truly amazing thing about gmail.
I archive hundreds of emails & I've still barely used 1% of my total space. - Daem0nX, on 02/27/2009, -0/+4Few projects to checkout if you're interested in flash uploads. I believe all 3 have added support for Flash 10's security change which requires you use a flash button instead of allowing an HTML element to perform an onclick event.

http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/uploader/ - inactive, on 02/27/2009, -1/+5I agree, for google to block uploading attachments is quite a pain.
@HurricaneDC, yes I can send zips, but that is one extra step for me and one for the other computer. If I recall bat files are also blocked. - runner108, on 02/27/2009, -3/+7Can you? I have a mac.
- sloppychris, on 02/27/2009, -0/+4I'm in Ubuntu with Firefox 3, it isn't yet working for me.
- SteelM, on 02/27/2009, -0/+4I got one last year, confused the hell out of me didn't understand what i was looking at.
- RyeBrye, on 02/27/2009, -0/+4the server apps to stream flash can be free. (red5)
- TejInLA, on 02/27/2009, -0/+4Same here. Used to use a firefox plugin (dragdropupload) for it, but it won't work with the new system.
There is, however, an option to use the old system under general preferences. - alpha88, on 02/27/2009, -0/+3@RedS0x, couldn't agree more, mailplane's great.
- BellaVitaGirl, on 02/27/2009, -0/+3Hallelujah.
