In 1621, a few hundred Pilgrims and Native Americans sat down to celebrate a bountiful harvest. The feast lasted three days, and included fowl, venison, fish, berries, watercress, lobster, dried fruit, clams, and plums. There was no pumpkin pie, however. There was also an alarming lack of user-friendly webmail services.

Now, 383 years later, it's once again time to celebrate what has come to be known as Thanksgiving—a time to gather with family and friends and give thanks for all that we have. We have many things to be thankful for. But mostly, we are thankful for you—our users—who remind us of why we work so hard all year and why we love what we do. That's better than all the dried fruit and clams in the world.

Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you for making our approach to email yours.

Gobble gobble,
The Gmail Team

Where'd you find this?

Nice..its like their april fool's google soda...almost..

EDIT: Haha found it under Gmail

7 things the Gmail Team is thankful for this year

* Our families... 4 engagements, 7 weddings, 11 new babies, 1 reunion, and 1 cross-country move by a fiancée so they "don't have to do the long-distance thing anymore" so far this year.
* Each other—the little family we've created here makes it fun to come in to work, especially on days when we play kickball.
* Winning the "PC World World Class Award" for being #2 on the list of The 100 Best Products of 2005. (We don't mind being #2, especially to Firefox. Plus, it gives us more to work for.)
* Google Video, and one fan's video we love in particular.
* The horn of plenty and the guy who drew it.
* You, our users. Yes you. Again. Still.
* Cheese. Brie, goat, cheddar, the stuff we write on our home page...

Happy Thanksgiving from the Gmail Team!

Funniest part was that someone changed the horn of plenty wikipedia article to say: "POOPIE" and nothing more. Pure pwnage.
