I think Gmail has great UI, but I recognize that assessment is partially a matter of taste and partially a function of how I think.

Better UI/UX doesn't always lead to better business outcomes.. Sad, but true.

It's (arguably) a young[er] field, relative to software or hardware engineering. Maybe things will get better :)

Yeah i guess the UI isnt that bad. Performance > UI in many cases for me though. Hopefully responsiveness times are something people consider more in designing an interface.
