You are at Gamil (as opposed to Gmail). We are a graphic and product design firm in Raleigh, NC, and we've been around since 1995.
A few years ago, we noticed a remarkable amount of new traffic. After doing a bit of research, we realized lots and lots of Gmail users were getting ahead of themselves when typing and ending up visiting us instead of their email account. So we started a blog to say "Hi!"
Feel free to stick around for a while — and return as often as you like!
