Gboard: A Keyboard For Gmail Addicts!

Gmail has been one of the most reliable and simplest mail service out there on the Internet. People love it because it’s easy-to-use, has built-in chat features (text, voice or video), and the site uses labels to help users organize their emails with more flexibility. If you’re a geek like me, I’m sure you’ll use keyboard shortcuts to access your emails quickly and without any much hassle – allowing you to never take your hands off the keyboard to use the mouse. However, the main downside of this useful feature is that remembering all the keyboard shortcuts, especially the combo-keys, requires a lot of time, patience and of course a relatively big brain. Why not spend only $20 for a mini-keyboard that sits well on your desktop?

Gboard is a USB keyboard made up of 19 finger-friendly colored buttons for the different keyboard shortcuts in email service Gmail. Plug it into your USB port, turn on the shortcuts, and you’re good to go! So instead of the traditional way of mousing and scrolling or holding SHIFT and pressing the keys on your computer keyboard to accomplish various tasks, now you can do so easily and quickly by hitting the buttons on Gboard. As simple as that.

Gboard supports both Apple and Windows OS and requires a USB port in order for it to unleash its “superpowers”. The keyboard weights 0.3 lb / 0.14 kg, including the packaging. The exact dimension of this Gmail hardware is 4.88 x 3.5 x .38 in / 12.3 x 8.8 x .9 mm. It’s priced at $19.99, and I personally think it’s not that expensive – most numeric-only keyboards cost about the same. This sleek gadget is definitely a must-try for Gmail addicts!
