Google Tip #1 - Drag and Drop Attachments
You can add an attachment by dragging the file to the e-mail you are composing. Open the folder where your attachment is located and simply drag the file into the body of the e-mail. A box will appear that says “Drop files here.” Once you have dropped the file, it will upload the attachment. You can even do this with multiple files. Highlight all of the files you want to attach and drag them into the e-mail.
