Gmail Field Trial For Promotions Tab Image Display

[engine]

Is Google getting pressure from big business over the content hidden in the tabular format on gmail?

I don't believe i've ever looked in the promotion tab since the early days, until now. This means i've never seen these promotions from all these wonderful companies. ;) I wonder how many others are the same and never look?

Promotional mail has a lot of images, from pictures of snazzy new shoes to photos of that rock-climbing gym you’ve been wanting to try. But right now, those images are buried inside your messages—and with only subject lines to go on, it can be a challenge to quickly pick out the deals and offers that interest you most. To help you find what you’re looking for faster, you can now sign up for a new field trial for Gmail that lets you view the Promotions tab in a more visual way.Gmail Field Trial For Promotions Tab Image Display [gmailblog.blogspot.com]
