D Ninja writes "Yesterday, Google released Gmail Labs which allows Gmail developers to decide what to include in the next feature releases of Gmail based on user feedback. As ZDnet has pointed out, essentially users are guinea pigs for these new features. Participants will vote on their favorite new features and the ones that are voted the highest will stick around and the ones that are least popular will disappear. From the Gmail blog:

The result of this loosely-directed chaos is 13 Labs features, with more on the way. Some of them we've found really useful, like Quick Links, which lets you save searches and any other views in Gmail. Kai and Julie wrote Superstars, which gives you different types of stars. Dave wrote Old Snakey, which lets you play an old school style computer game when you press "&". I'm just going to go out and say it: Old Snakey is probably a bad idea. But Dave wanted to do it, so Dave did it and anyone who uses Gmail can use it. And now you can help decide whether it's a good idea.
