Google has released a new add-on to its Gmail service called "Mail Goggles" to prevent drunk-emailing. I shit you not. Everyone's been there--waking up at after a night of drunken festivities only to see that the kinky email you thought you were sending to your girlfriend actually got sent to your entire Philosophy class list-serv? No? No one else has been there?
Well the point is, that everyone has probably sent an email or two you've regretted at 3am on a Fri/Sat night. Well to solve the problem of drunk emailing, Mail Goggles asks you to solve a series of simple math problems to prove you are in the right state of mind. The add-on is only active late night Friday and Saturday--when you'd probably need it most--but can be customized depending on your needs.
As for drunk dialing...you're still on your own.
