After all the enjoyment and masti last evening, I guess all are back to work. Here’s news for all the extensive Gmail users. This week Gmail Labs introduced 2 new features i.e. Google Docs and Google Calendar to its Gmail window. These features enables Gmail user to access Google Calendar and Docs without opening the hosted application.

Like Mail Goggles, these two features are still under testing phase hence to access them you need to enable these features first. According to Google’s engineers with these features Gmail users can see recently accessed Google Docs and also gets event alerts within Gmail.

Google Calendar and Docs are two of the highly requested features. Though opening Google calendar or docs is easy but access within Gmail is a time-saving feature. Moreover you get Calendar notification, which automatically alerts user of its coming event or meeting.

Once enabled, you can see these features in the sidebar below the labels application. Along with these features Google Labs released another feature called as “Add any gadget by URL”. With the help of this feature you can add any gadget by pasting in the URL of its XML spec file.

Truly speaking I have already enabled these two latest features and I feel they are worth enabling. I personally liked the Google Docs feature as it makes my daily work quick and easy. What you have to say about these features, use the comment section and please feel free to share it with me.
