Out of the blue this morning I noticed a bit of humor embedded in Gmail. While browsing your email, there is a header link that is displayed while you are browsing your email(see image below). The topics that show up here are configurable in Mail Settings -> Web Clips section. You can choose from NPR, BBC, Yahoo, etc.
While interesting this isn't really all that funny. The fun part comes in while you are viewing the spam folder. Instead of the link using your preset topics, it instead shows a random recipe from recipesource.com where spam is the main ingredient. Nothing earth shattering here, but humorous nevertheless.
