Google has enhanced its voice calling feature in Gmail with an ability to click on phone numbers and call them instantly instead of having to type in the number manually.From now on, phone numbers in Gmail will appear as links. Click the number, and — if you have the voice and video plugin installed in Gmail — a dialpad with the number will pop up, and you can call it with another click.
Furthermore, you can now call your Gmail contacts by clicking on the little green icon next to their phone number.
Although limited just to phone numbers in Gmail chats and messages, this new feature brings Gmail voice calling one step closer to Skype, which has had similar functionality for quite some time.
