Gmail now has a web based PDF viewer

You can now view PDF documents inside Gmail! Simply click the "view" link next to the attached PDF document, and Gmail will automatically open the PDF in Google Documents. Pretty nifty, eh?

Why is this great?

• PDFs load slowly, Google Docs loads quickly
  
• One does not have to have Adobe Reader to view PDFs anymore
• Includes all major features of Adobe Reader, including zoom, search, and printing the PDF.
