<p>Google on Thursday announced a small Gmail update that lets you create Google Calendar events directly from your email. The new feature is rolling out to everyone with the English (US) language in their account starting today and continuing "over the next week," so don't be surprised if you don't have it just yet.</p><p>Here's how it works. Once you get the feature, dates and times within emails will be lightly underlined. All you have to do is click one to schedule whatever you want in reference to the email, without ever leaving Gmail:</p><p>After you click on one of these underlined dates, you'll be able to see your schedule for the day, as well as change the title, date, or time of the event. Clicking "Add to Calendar" will do exactly what you expect, and the calendar event will include a link back to the original email.</p><p>If that sounds familiar, you're not the only one experiencing deja vu. When Gmail rolled out support for .ics events just under two months ago, the newly added event in Google Calendar also included a link back to the original email you received.</p><p><a href="http://thenextweb.com/google/2013/05/02/google-lets-you-add-calendar-events-directly-from-gmail-by-clicking-on-a-date-and-time-english-only-for-now/">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://gizmodo.com/brilliant-gmail-tweak-lets-you-schedule-calendar-events-487737922">New Gmail Tweak Lets You Schedule Calendar Events With Just a Click</a> (Gizmodo)</p><p><a href="http://lifehacker.com/add-google-calendar-events-directly-from-gmail-487750718">Add Google Calendar Events Directly from Gmail - Lifehacker</a> (Lifehacker)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=d1EiPzEWtkAWOrM4blqn_E4T3s15M&ned=us">2 additional articles.</a></p>
