Happy Birthday! Gmail turned 10 years old on April 1st. For the past decade, Google’s favorite pet project and free communication platform has out maneuvered the competition.

Gmail has also proven its quality and resilience, having implemented only minor iterations to its user interface during its lifespan. Will this be enough to stay relevant for the next 10 years?
