One thing missing from Google’s vast array of applications was a “To-Do” application. Now, it's available in Gmail via the third-party application “Remember the Milk."
Remember the Milk” is a simple, free, online productivity task management tool where you can add tasks to remind you the date on which they must be completed. This was one application many Gmail users asked for and finally got via the Gmail Labs feature, “Add any gadget by URL."
You can now add the “Remember the Milk” gadget by completing the following steps. Before you do the steps however, you should either have an account in "Remember the Milk" or go to their site to set one up first.
1. Log-on to your Gmail account
2. Click “Settings” and Click “Labs”
3. Enable “Add any gadget by URL”

This is a great feature to have in Gmail.
