There are 2 new features added to Gmail recently:

1. Add attachments by Drag and Drop

After a long wait Google had finally done which could have been done long time back. Now you can add Gmail attachment by just drag and drop in new mail you are composing just like you do in Outlook.

When you drag a file over the webpage a green area is highlighted where you can just drop the file and it gets attached.  Though this Drag and Drop feature for Gmail attachment at present works only in Google Chrome and Firefox, I hope for Internet Explorer it will be just around the corner.

2. Invitation

Organizing a Meeting has been made easier by Google by adding a small invitation button just below the Subject in the new mail. When you click it, a small window appears where meeting can be setup.

This works in sync with the Google calendar. When you edit the “To/Cc/Bcc” fields, calendar for the people if shared will appear. Looking at the google calendar of invitees you can see the availability and then decide the time accordingly. In the end when you send the email, the event gets added to your as well as friends calendar. Isn’t it cool?
