It steals focus!
Contacts don’t work most of the time!
Mail is often not sent because the button pushing has no effect.

Is this GMail 2.0?
Fuck 2.0, I want the working GMail back!
And stop it from stealing focus to it’s own tab, that is SO annoying.

I didn’t use that thing for more than a year, so I took the chance of this re-discovery to get rid of it. Within several minutes I sent 98 invitations to an imaginary friend whose mail bounced at some noreply@somewhere… address. And it worked – I got rid of that little blue box that serves no purpose on my GMail page!

Imagine my surprise when today I find that box at the same place, with 50 new invitations to give away.

No, really – I don’t have any friends who don’t have a GMail account. I don’t want to use this “feature”, ever. And it does not contribute a thing to my GMail experience – get rid of it Google! Put some AdSense there or something.
