Gmail gets a new way to attach Google Calendar invitations

Filed under: E-mail, Productivity, Web services, Google

Gmail and Google Calendar now work even better together, with a new Gmail interface for attaching event invitations. When you compose a new message, you'll see an "attach invitation" link under the subject field, right next to the familiar "attach file" button. You can fill in an event title, location, and time, and everyone in the To/Cc/Bcc fields will be added to the event.

If your friends have Google Calendar, you'll be able to see their availability when you're picking a time for the event. Plus, they'll have your event automatically added to their calendars -- and, of course, it will be added to yours, too. This is exactly how email/calendar integration should work. Nice going, Google!
