About this tag
The gmail drag drop tag covers discussions about Google's implementation of drag-and-drop attachment functionality in Gmail. This feature allows users to drag files from their desktop directly into an email message, initially supported in Chrome and Firefox 3.6 browsers.

The tag also touches on browser support and the gradual rollout of the feature to other browsers as they become compatible.
