Google has revealed that its email service Gmail now has over a billion monthly active users. The revelation was made by the Mountain View, California-based company’s CEO Sundar Pichai while announcing last quarter’s earnings.
At the company’s annual I/O developers conference in May last year, Pichai – who was Google’s senior vice president of products then – had revealed 900 million monthly active users figure for Gmail. This means that the service gained 100 million users in the past 7 months.
