Google reclaim right to Gmail name in UK

British users of Google's Gmail service will finally get proper gmail addresses instead of the googlemail ones that many UK users were assigned after a trademark dispute.

The Internet search company has finally come to an agreement with a firm that claimed it already used the gmail name in the UK.

Google will now offer users the chance to change the end of their email address from @googlemail.com to @gmail.com.

An official Google blog noted that as the new address ending contained 50 percent less characters than the old one, the company expected the change to save up to 60 million keystrokes a day.

It comes as social networking site Twitter has also announced a new feature that allows users to embed tweets directly into a webpage.ADNFCR-2683-ID-19761140-ADNFCR
