3 minute news bulletin:
1. Gmail back in the UK - After a company claimed that it had the rights to the gMail name in October 2005, Google only allowed UK users to use the @googlemail.com suffix in their email address. UK users can now sign up to gmail with an @gmail.com email address. Previous users of @googlemail.com accounts can receive their email at the same @gmail.com email address - so if your email address was hello@googlemail.com, all email from hello@gmail.com will also be redirected there.

2. YouTube to let users charge for rentals - YouTube's product manager, Hunter Walk, revealed that they will be allowing some content owners to charge for their uploads and creations. This could potentially be fantastic for both indie film makers who want to make money while getting their work out online, or it could spell disaster as consumers pay for sub-standard material.
