GMAIL

1. History

2. Google has supported secure HTTPS since the day it launched. In the beginning, it was only default on the login page, a reason that Google engineer Ariel Rideout stated was because HTTPS made "your mail slower".

3. The idea for Gmail was developed by Paul Buchheit several years before it was announced to the public. The project was known by the code name Caribou. During early development, the project was kept secret from most of Google's own engineers.

4. Awards

7. Gmail is a free email service developed by Google.

8. Google's mail servers automatically scan emails for multiple purposes, including to filter spam and malware, and to add context-sensitive advertisements next to emails.

10. Activity

11. Interactive lessons and activities can engage students in a number of ways; in particular, they prompt students to engage with content, rather than passively absorb it. They can be presented in-class or as online activities for students to complete at home.
