I was having trouble with my pointing stick (the mouse pointer in the middle of laptop keyboards) moving my cursor by mistaking key clicks for stick clicks.  I just disabled it since I never use it but while I was looking for a work around I found this tool that disables your touchpad while you're typing.  It works pretty well although my touchpad is positions so that I never hit it while typing anyways.  If anyone uses the pointing stick or hit their touchpad accidentily while typing then this touchpad freeze might help.

Also I find the following gmail labs to be pretty useful:  

• Title Tweaks - rearranges the title so you can see the Inbox (Unread Mail Count) text more frequently; makes it convenient for checking inbox count when you're on a different tab
• Green Robot! - Converts the status icon to a robot when the contact is using an android device
• Move Icon Column - moves attachment icons to the left of text so it's easier to see

Not sure how new these are but they are new to me. :)  Go to gmail settings and click the labs tab to see all the gmail labs available.  Another nice feature is the gchat desktop notifications (gmail settings -> general).  Although I have a feeling this one might backfire on me because someone will send me an inappropriate message while I'm showing something to a client.  Hopefully this will encourage you guys to send me more inappropriate messages! :)

edit: chrome apparently doesn't like the unordered list styling (list items aren't indented so the bullets are floating under my avatar). boo :(
