That’s the problem, here’s the solution…

Go to Settings –> Labels
There you will see a new System Label called ^act — if it is set to Show then Hide it and all of your labels should magically reappear.

Weird that Google broke Gmail in their own Chrome browser, but not in FireFox (which still works fine).

Seems this might be related to new Buzz functionality in Gmail?

UPDATE: The above fix took care of missing labels, but the Compose Mail link was still missing… Choosing Settings –> Offline –> Disable Offline Mail for this computer fixed the missing Compose Mail link. Not sure if the ^act hide is still necessary or not but I’m leaving it hidden.

Under the hood, we were able to build the foundation of a browser that runs today’s complex web applications much better . By keeping each tab in an isolated “sandbox”, we were able to prevent one tab from crashing another and provide improved protection from rogue sites. We improved speed and responsiveness across the board. We also built V8, a more powerful JavaScript engine, to power the next generation of web applications that aren’t even possible in today’s browsers. 

 I would suggest that you download it and fully test your website in it to be sure that your site functions as expected. If first impressions and Google’s history are any indication, it won’t be too long before this is the most popular browser on the Internet.

The application of this law is dependent on particular business and factual circumstances. We encourage all of our clients to perform the appropriate due diligence as it relates to their specific online businesses.

Our solution will be to cease any online, sales-taxable business in New York. We wish all online vendors would do the same to encourage reversal of this ridiculous, money-grabbing law. If this stands many states will follow, and the resulting administrative costs will be an absolute nightmare.

Here is a link to a memo from the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, Office of Tax Policy Analysis, Taxpayer Guidance Division that addresses the new legislation:

As many of you know, we’ve been searching for over a year, for a house in the Asheville area with office space to expand our business (we outgrew our current space quite a while ago). A few months ago we expanded our search into other areas and have found the perfect place in Chattanooga. We found out, only a few days ago, that our offer has finally been accepted, and without a change to the original closing date which is February 28th. So, we have just barely a week to pack and move house and office. For the next two weeks, please bear with us as we continue to be available for any emergencies. We plan to be fully operational by the first week in March. During this transition, our web hosting servers will be totally unaffected. We’ve arranged for extra monitoring and support at the data center while we are not fully online ourselves.

Since virtually all of our web design and marketing projects are handled with communication via email and phone there should be no change to the level of service that you’ve become accustomed to. In fact, we look forward to raising the level of our service in our new and improved work environment. For any of you that require in-person, onsite service, we are prepared to accommodate those needs with scheduled visits to the Asheville area. We are excited about this new opportunity and growth. If you have family, friends or business associates in the Chattanooga area, please refer them to us while you continue to refer us to your Asheville area contacts as well. If you are ever in the Chattanooga area, please be sure to contact us for a visit.

As long as we are on the subject of change…. please think about your website and whether it needs any changes. It is a good idea to update your website with minor content changes at least once or twice per year. You may want to review your website to see if it still reflects who you are and what you do. Are there any services listed that you no longer provide? Are there any new services that you now provide that are not listed? Is all of your contact information correct? Are there outdated links to other websites on any of your pages? Does your business have a new direction or focus that needs to be emphasized? Do you need some ideas on how to drive more targeted traffic to your site? We can help with Search Engine Optimization, a Pay-Per-Click campaign, a Press Release or some new Articles, to add relevant content and keywords to your site. Now (well two weeks from now, really) would be a great time to consider freshening the content on your website.

As of August 1st, 2005 4yourwebsite´s Asheville Web Design Office is now at 263 Haywood Street in downtown Asheville. Still plenty of convenient parking and hours by appointment. A full-time receptionist is available for pick-up and drop-off of your Web Design materials.

Please be sure to note this change of address in your records. Website, eMail Address and Phone Numbers remain the same.

Help Center Live is being implemented on 4yourwebsite.com to facilitate better customer service. Clients can enter service tickets and/or initiate online chat directly with sales and support specialists.

To see our Live Help system in action use the “Click Here for Online Support Status” button, Service Ticket entry is also available from the Support Status page and on the Client Tools page.

I think “low price” and “family” help is what got the site into its current state, so I know exactly what you mean about weighing price considerations and quality issues. P
