Adding Treehugger Web Clips to Your Gmail Account
by Lindsey Lake, New York on 12.30.05
Remember a few weeks back when we asked Do you use gmail? Well, there was a reason for that! Gmail has implemented a new system that many of you may have noticed already - above your inbox there are "Web Clips" displayed. Web clips are a way to grab headlines from your favorite sites! If you are interested in keeping an eye on the latest TH headlines from the safety of your gmail account, please read our tutorial in the extended!
Steps to Add TreeHugger to your Gmail Webclips:
First, locate the settings link in the upper right hand corner of your mail interface and click on it.
You will be brought to the settings interface where you will see a list of different options:
Click to enlarge.
On the left hand side of the Web Clips options panel you will see a text box where you can search for web clips. Type in http://treehugger.com, and on the right side you will see your results. Next to the results there will be a button, with the word "Add"; by clicking that it will add the Treehugger feed to your Web Clips, displaying TH headlines above your inbox!
Now, when you return to your inbox you will see Treehugger webclips! (**Note: If you have other webclips as well, you may have to use the arrows to the right of the webclips to scroll the clips to get to the TH ones, but over time they will randomly appear as well**).
While on the topic of Gmail, how uncouth of me would it be to ask if another gmail-enabled Treehugger could invite me to get an account too? I don't actually know anyone who's currently using it (and I believe I need to be invited).
Generous souls can reach me at: darin -at- metrompg [d.0.t] c0m ... thanks.
I've just sent an invite. Anybody else needs one? I have 99 left..
I've been getting Treehugger news in my Gmail and GoogleReader for a couple weeks — I'm old school.
I'd like an Invite, Thanks
Thanks, MGR - got your invite.
I now have 19 invites to dole out as well. Free for the asking...
Invite sent, Rodney. Anybody else?
Hi there,
