How to send an email to group of contacts using gmail

Do you send emails to more than one recipient often? Are the recipients often the same?

You can turn these contacts into a group in Gmail and address messages to all of them much easier and faster. Instead of entering the addressees individually, you just type the group name and let Gmail do the rest.
