Nice little trick to get your email. As we go thru the day most people probably don't realize how much they might use a Google function like Gmail. Till it is not there.

Hello Amit. I have the same problem too today. I can't access my gmail no matter how many times I tried. Good thing you post this trick. Btw, how can I put an icon beside my URL?
