Why send an email when instead you can send a quick message with Google Hangouts. It's directly connected to you Gmail. To start a call from Gmail you hover your mouse over a contact, then click list icon (seen below under the blue person icon on the center) . You can also simply click on the contact from the list of previously contacted people (for Hangouts) on the left side of the screen.
A new window will pop up and you can type a quick message to a colleague.
You can also use Hangout to Video Chat. You can click the video camera icon for a contact. A new window will open showing the view from your camera and asking you if you would like to invite anyone else – you can add up to 25 people in a video call in Hangouts. If you want to go audio-only, click the camera icon at the bottom to disable it; click the microphone icon to mute the line and again to unmute it.
More instructions on Hangout can be found here: Hangouts Help
