Sober enough to email?

Introducing Gmail Goggles.

Have you ever sent an email late one night when you were sloshed... and you woke up the next morning and wished you hadn't sent it? Let's say you are drunk-soaked-to-the-bone. And you decide to email your ex/crush/boss/coworker/ENTIRE-OFFICE and tell something you wouldn't want to tell when sober. Google kind of prevents that. By asking you a series of simple timed arithmetic questions. Just to make sure you are not drunk. Or stoned.

By default it is enabled on late Friday nights. But you can schedule it according to your drinking needs. For example, daily. :P

Guess what? A professor in my department told me about this!

I feel they should have this in cell phones and GPS devices as well. Just to save your life. :-)

I found about this the other day, and was faced with a dilemma about using it. I am so tempted still to do it :D

I need cell phone goggles...have sent many many messages, made phone calls in my not so sober times and wished I hadn't the next morning! Thankfully, all the people concerned knew exactly what I was doing, so it's okay.
