Open email Attachments in Google Docs

Within the last month or two I have seen a new feature in Gmail that I've not seen much fanfare about. I thought it would draw more interest.

When receiving a ".doc" attachment in a Gmail account you will now see the option to "Open as a Google document." Wow, what a nice feature.

If you often use a shared computer, your email attachments can now be opened, viewed, and saved to your Gmail account without a locally installed word processor! One more reason that you can "give me a browser and I'll see you in June."
