But this does not end here. Yesterday, Gmail Labs launched few Labs experiments that let you to add gadgets to the left-nav, next to Chat and Labels. For the time being there are two available gadgets: Google Calendar and Google Docs. Also there is a third Lab that allows you to add any gadget by pasting in the URL of its XML spec file. This last feature is not very friendly for all users, but it is very interesting for developers who wants to go into gmail gadgets.
