UK @GOOGLEMAIL.COM Switch to @GMAIL.Com will Save 60 Million Keystrokes Equals to 20 Bonbons of Energy!

Almost everyone using @gmail.com knows that email to someone@gmail.com and someone@googlemail.com will reach same inbox. In UK Google Email User by Default get @googlemail.com during signup. Recently Google's Gmail Official Blog Announced that by next week by default Google Email page will give option to switch existing user to use @gmail.com instead of @googlemail.com.

If you already have a Google email account in the UK, you'll soon have the option to switch your existing @googlemail.com address to the matching @gmail.com one, but you're also free to stick with @googlemail.com. And starting later this week, anybody who signs up for a new account in the UK will get an @gmail.com address. Since "gmail" is 50% fewer characters than "googlemail," we estimate this name change will save approximately 60 million keystrokes a day. At about 217 microjoules per keystroke, that's about the energy of 20 bonbons saved every day! - Article of UK Google Email user on Google Gmail Official Blog

See, how much big Google is, just removing 4 Character from Email address will Save about 60 million keystroke per day which is about 217 microjules per keystroke and 20 bonbons energy per day!!!

If Google can reduce power consumption, why not we can save power for Bangladesh? Hope to Write more about saving on my Green Bangladesh Blog very soon.

Thanks to all
