Today, Google added a useful new feature to Gmail, essentially allowing users to drag and drop images into new emails. There are no labs features to enable, simply drag the image in, resize it on the fly and you’re done. Once caveat is that this feature is available only when using Google’s Chrome browser for now, but Google promises to bring the feature to other browsers soon. This is a great addition to an already great product. Thanks Google! Hit the jump for Google’s full release.
Full Blog Post:
“Recently, we launched a feature that allows you to drag an attachment from your computer right onto Gmail.
I’ve always been a fan of the inserting image lab, so I naturally wondered if it would be possible to combine the two.
Today we’re launching a feature that allows you to drag images from your computer into a message. You don’t have to have the insert image lab enabled for it to work. Just drag the image in, resize it if you want, and send.
Currently, this feature only works in Google Chrome, but will be coming soon to other browsers.”
