"Display Images Below" feature Killed by Gmail, Now Gmail Will Never Ask You to Dispaly Images

Gmail Dropped "Display Images Below" in your Gmail Inbox

"Display Images Below" Dropped by Gmail

Effective from Thursday, Dec. 12, 2013, desktop version of Gmail will never ask you whether to display image in your mail or not. From Thursday onwards, Google has made changes in dispalying images in you inbox from any external resource. The reason for not dispalying images from external sites is to protect Gmail users' identity and can compromise the security of Gmail users.

Gmail is able to do this because Gmail is now going to check all images in the mail for viruses and malware before it is to be displayed in users' mail. Google is storing images for your email in it's own secure proxy server instead of displaying through external sources.

This feature is only available for desktop version of Gmail and is yet to be rolled out for mobile users. As per the news coming from resources, this feature will roll out for mobile in the starting months of 2014.

Looks like Facebook is again testing the feature for Pop-Out video that floats in the news feed while scrolling news feed up and down. Facebook first tested the same feature in 2015 but was not made available for all desktop users. As of know it still seems to be in testing phase as I am not able to see this feature in the same MacBook for different browsers. Like I am able to watch the pop-out and scrolling video in Firefox browser but the same is not working in Chrome browser. The floating video option is made available through 2 options. One is a Video Pop-Out button in the current played video. You have to click on that blue pop-out button to get video moved to left hand side of the news feed.
