What I learned this Week - #01

Tracking Gmail Messages

We can now manually track our sent Gmail messages. This means we can now know whether our recipient has open our mails or not.

Here is how:
1. You can install a plugin called "Signals" developed by Hubspot. Till the time of writing this blog it only works in Chrome Browser.
