Weld and colleagues demonstrated this effect using ultracold lithium atoms as stand-ins for the electrons. If he tries to fling away an electron, he says, “it will not only turn around and come straight back to me, it’ll come right back to me and stop.” (Actually, he says, in this sense the electron is “more like a dog than a boomerang.” The boomerang will keep going past you if you don’t catch it, but a well-trained dog will sit by your side.) To picture the boomerang in action, physicist David Weld of the University of California, Santa Barbara imagines shrinking himself down and slipping inside a disordered material. That localization is also necessary for the boomerang effect. The pinned-down electrons prevent the material from conducting electricity, thereby turning what might otherwise be a metal into an insulator. In 1958, physicist Philip Anderson realized that with enough disorder, electrons in a material become localized: They get stuck in place, unable to travel very far from where they started. Instead of a pristine material made up of orderly arranged atoms, the material must have many defects, such as atoms that are missing or misaligned, or other types of atoms sprinkled throughout. Particles can boomerang if they’re in a material that has lots of disorder. An experiment reveals that, after being given a nudge, particles in certain materials return to their starting points, on average, researchers report in a paper accepted in Physical Review X. Physicists have confirmed a theoretically predicted phenomenon called the quantum boomerang effect. Still feeling nostalgic?

We'll tactfully pretend to not notice your so-2017 rose gold plates.

I'm fabulously wealthy, and rather than upgrade my private jet or get a new set of platinum plates for my yacht this year, I'd like to spend a couple million dollars and buy the Email Game.

Thank you for playing! If you want a memento of the Email Game, feel free to buy one of these snazzy mugs! Or you can buy a Boomerang subscription, which is how we keep this place running. Is there anything I can do to say thank you for it?

If you have messages scheduled further out than that, we'll email you with instructions on how to handle them. They will continue to be delivered for at least several months, though you won't be able to play the Email Game with new messages. What will happen with messages I've scheduled to send later or Boomeranged through the Email Game? If you found the timer and smileys helpful, you can get a standalone version here.

Enable the Canned Responses lab in Gmail to replace the Email Game's quick replies.

After you've installed Boomerang, use the Inbox Pause feature to stop incoming messages while you clear out everything that's already in your Inbox.

Install our Boomerang extension to enable some of the key features that were in the Email Game, such as response tracking and Send Later.

With auto-advance enabled, each time you take action on a conversation, like by archiving it, Gmail will automatically move to the next conversation.

Turn on auto-advance and turn off the preview pane in Gmail.

We know there's nothing else quite like the Email Game out there, but with help from our core product Boomerang and a few settings changes, you can get an experience inside Gmail that's pretty close to it. What should I use instead of the Email Game? We'll get a lot more bang for the buck if we invest that effort into Boomerang instead. We've kept the Email Game running over the years, but it's reaching the age where it needs a pretty significant rewrite. proven that a rapid-fire gamified workflow is probably not what most people want to use to process their email. Eight years later, Boomerang has been successful beyond our imagination, and the Email Game has um.

When we started building Boomerang and the Email Game simultaneously back in 2010, we weren't sure if building productivity tools into Gmail or if building a rapid-fire gamified workflow for clearing out a full Inbox would be more valuable.
