Web Applications - Tips & Tricks

Did you know, you can append +any-word to a GMail address & use that word to filter emails or distinctly identify where the mail has come from? For instance, any email sent to the following email address: example+webapps@gmail.com will be recieved by example@gmail.com because gmail ignores the "+" and anything after it. In fact, you can also have multiple full-stops or dots WITHIN the actual address as GMail won't recognize them. This literally means you can have unlimited email addresses based on your primary GMail email address & they will all reach a single inbox.

This is a tip from WebApps.StackExchange.com, a new Q&A Forum (currently in beta) for power users of web applications from the makers of Stack Overflow. There are lots of other interesting tips & tricks there related to commonly used websites and if you have some pesky problems you can post yours as well.
