Move Your Gmail Signature Above the Quoted Text

by Jesse Petersen

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been sick and tired of scrolling to the bottom of a long thread of messages, cutting my signature, and pasting it below my reply or forward. Apparently, Keith C and Dave C were, too, because they wrote a feature in the Gmail Lab to do that automatically.

Here’s what you do:

  1. Go to your Settings.
  2. Click the Labs link on the far right.
  3. Scroll down to “Signature Tweaks” and select “Enable.”
  4. Voila! It refreshes Gmail so you lose any open chat windows, and you’re good to go.

Awesome! Does that work for Google Apps, too?

Funny you mention today… I was just noticing in class tonight that my apps account does not have a Labs link. I’m guessing “no.”

Just came across this, and I have to say “thank you” for letting us know about this tweak. I hadn’t checked out Labs before, either; looks like there are some other useful features there.
