To the folks at GMAIL, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE place a “Move to Trash” button to the top level of GMAIL, and please make the quick key “T” trash a message the same way Y archives a message.

People have speculated that GMAIL makes it take three clicks to get to “Move To Trash” because you want to force folks to archive stuff so they have more stuff to search. More searches means more Google Adsense revenue so I understand we all love Google Adsense revenue. It fine that you like to work archive style, BUT I LIKE TO TRASH MAIL and I don’t want to change my style.

It’s very un-Google to force me to archive stuff when I like to trash stuff it feels kind of, what’s the word mmmm evil? Forcing a UI down my throat is like a media players making themselves the default media player and adding themelves to my “load at startup” list.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE fix this feature. Everyone hates it!!! The interface is supposed to work FOR USERS not AGAINST them!

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Other twitter accounts you can follow: Video Games, Open Angel Forum, and LAUNCH Conference & Newsletter
