gmail

I have installed Gmail (and other Google as well) webapps into Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit. After that I rebooted the system hoping that webapps will integrate into the system.

But after logging back to the system, I see no changes. If I click on email envelope (top bar), I don't see my inbox. Also if I try to search email in Dash via gmail keyword, nothing happens as well.

Am I using this wrongly or webapps don't work? What was supposed to happen when I install webapps?

Note: I did start the Gmail app from Dash and logged in
