After years of the same utilitarian, gray, and “meh” all around platform, the new Gmail update is giving the email service a new face. While functional, old Gmail lacks the efficiency and integration that's key to a good user experience. I went hands-on with the new features and discovered there was something worth pinging home about.

A more interesting article appears after scrolling through the article. A few pages down "Security Experts Dismantle Ray Ozzie’s Smartphone Backdoor Proposal". Now that is more scary than Google reading all your email and selling keywords to flood you with spam ads.

You have to turn it on under settings but then you can use a standalone program (my personal preference is Thunderbird.) I'm sure there are some standalone apps for a Chromebook. This way you don't even have to access the website if you don't want to.

The difference between POP3 and IMAP access is, POP3 will download the emails to your computer. IMAP will only download the headers (Subject). When you click on the email, then it will download the message.
