I sometimes find myself writing a Gmail email on the browser and I want to switch to editing it into my open emacs session, then once I am done, flip back to Gmail on the browser text window. Is there a good way of doing this? Maybe with a Firefox/Chrome extension?

EDIT: Ideally something that will open a new buffer in an existing emacs session.

Or this Chrome extension.

Hi, welcome to Super User! Could you edit your answer to include a bit more information about what the chrome extension is/does? – nhinkle Dec 17 '11 at 1:02
I gave the answer to @nauhygon since I never heard before of this Chrome extension, but I would have given the answer also to u-punkt if it were possible. – 130490868091234 Dec 18 '11 at 12:18

There is "It's all text", https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/its-all-text/, for Firefox. That extension lets you edit textarea contents in an external editor, e.g. emacsclient, and save your edits back to the textarea.
