Gmail gets slightly new logo, new pages emphasizing why Gmail is good

Google also redesigned two pages that show why it feels Gmail is better than other options and news, which is of course interestingly timed as Facebook earlier today also announced its revamped Facebook Messages, which we felt was like redesigning the term “meh“.
