my friend’s just pointed out this rather natty extension for firefox. It adds a Gmail icon to the status bar of Firefox which checks your account every so often and notifies you of new mail. Can also be used to evoke a windows new mail alertbox for users of windows.

              Really nice. When I installed the Gmail Compose plugin, I was wondering when this would come.
