Google released some new features, or add-ons, to its free Gmail e-mail service last week. These add-ons make the emails sent over Gmail more interactive by embedding bits of media such as YouTube videos, Picasa Web (or Flickr) photo albums, and restaurant information from Yelp. There is even one that lets you "unsend" e-mails.
In order to access these new add-ons, you must click on the Gmail Labs tab, which appears as a green beaker in the upper right hand corner of your Gmail inbox, next to where your e-mail address appears in bold letters. After you click on it, you will be brought to the master list of Gmail add-ons. Simply click "enable" next to the add-on of choice, and then scroll to the bottom of the page to "save changes."
