As you may already know, Gmail is one of the over 60 different services provided by the Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) giant, which has announced a few days ago that it has integrated the well-known Google+ with Gmail. This comes with a very useful and user-friendly feature that basically suggests you some of your Google+ contacts whenever you are composing an e-mail and type in the e-mail recipients in Gmail. This is very time-effective and convenient, given the fact that you can basically email all your Google+ contacts, no matter if you know their email addresses or not.
The only condition for you to be able to enjoy this newly implemented feature is to add the Google+ users to your Circles (connections list). After you add the recipient, he or she can effortlessly reply to your email and when that happens, their email address will be automatically displayed.
