Today, email systems play a vital role in keeping communication channels open in small, medium and large sized organizations. Gmail has taken efficiency and comfort in communication to a whole new level with the people widget. In the words of Zohair Hyder, a Software Engineer at Google, "Email is just as much about the people you communicate with as it is what you communicate about. We think it can be helpful to view relevant information in context, which is why over the next two weeks we’re rolling out a new people widget located on the right hand side of your messages. The people widget surfaces content from friends, family and colleagues that is already available to you but may be hard to find and makes it easier to connect with them." 

Here's a sneak peak at the widget ! 

Beside every email message, the people widget displays relevant information about the people who are a part of the conversation. This includes recent email, Google Buzz posts, calendar events as well as shared Google documents! It is now easier than ever to wish your co-worker at another site a happy birthday, use your Google Calendar to invite a friend to lunch or start a group chat to brain storm on a new idea! 

Add more hues to rid those blues! 
Happy Monday everyone!
