Wanting to send a text message while sitting at your phone?  Google makes this easy by allow SMS messages from GMail.  If you are logged into Google, simply click here and you can see which of the awesome Google lab projects you want to try.

I suggest you try the SMS messaging, the custom colors for labels (especially if you’re a label-holic such as myself), pictures in chat, and Google Calendar.  There are plenty more that may be useful, but those seem to be really handy for myself.
