Not too long ago I thought web apps could never really compete with desktop apps in terms of usabilty. Meanwhile I clearly prefer Gmail over Outlook. Attaching files via drag&drop is the only thing I really miss. Great job, Gmail team!

Then miss it no more: Both Chrome and Safari support dragging files onto "Choose File" controls :)

The Drag drop Upload add-on takes care of that quite nicely.
