Why Google’s Gmail Signature Location Sucks

Posted on 01 January 1970 by

Hot on the heels of its Latitude friend-tracking service, Google adds another location-based service: an automated Gmail signature that includes your current location. Unfortunately, the feature isn’t polished enough for business use. It incorrectly displays city, state AND country, and fails to separate these elements with commas. All this could be achieved with simple if-then logic that should take the developer 20 minutes to add.
