Google’s GMail is constantly adding features, mostly through the Labs incubator feature. Some make it, some don’t. Some are minor, but then there are some, that are game-changing. Google announced on Monday that a new feature called Priority Inbox would be rolled out to all users. It’s still in Beta, but the team at Mountain View seem pretty confident about it.
Priority Mail splits your inbox into three areas, for unread mail that you WANT to read, mail messages that you don’t care about, and read items that you don’t want to forget about. And it does it, smartly, learning from your usage, when you promote/demote messages manually, that aren’t grouped to your liking. This means that it’ll get better, the more you use it. And by better, Google means: “Like YOU want it.”
From the Gmail Blog:
“In a way, Priority Inbox is like your personal assistant, helping you focus on the messages that matter without requiring you to set up complex rules.”
This looks excellent. Can’t wait for it to roll out, over OUR GMail accounts….
