Google Gmail Adds Secure Session Option

TidBITS Safe Computing
Google explained in its Gmail blog that the service has added a Browser Connection option at the bottom of its Settings > General view that lets you select "Always use https," which is the protocol name for a URL that makes your browser start up a SSL/TLS encrypted connection with a Web server.

Nice find. I had bookmarked https://gmail.com, which made the connection secure throughout, but this is handy to know.
