Google will allow users to unify their Gmail messages, Google Drive files and the Web from the search bar on Gmail or Google.com, the company said today.
When users begin typing a query into the main Gmail search bar, the query will auto-complete with content not just from Gmail but also from files stored in Drive and Google Calendar events.
Google began a limited beta test of a combined search for email and Web in August and in October expanded it to include files stored in Drive.
