Gmail’s Canned Responses is E-mail for the Lazy

The makers of Mail Goggles, the popular application for drunk people, have announced their next Labs innovation: automated e-mails.

“Canned Responses” allows you to harness filters on incoming messages and create a stock pile of automated, cookie cutter responses.  And you don’t even have to click “Send,” as Gmail will do that for you as well.

The new feature was designed based on feedback from users in Google’s forums.

Canned Responses could be pretty useful for those clever enough crack the math of Mail Goggles and send out a drunk e-mail.  While you recover from that hangover, let Gmail handle the e-mail apologies.
