    Google has introduced a new feature for gmail user, PRIORITY INBOX , to make your life easier while handling tons of emails.

    well it's a good effort but the options provided in the priority mail is not new to us except IMPORTANT mail shorting option

    Starred and unread were there from the beginning.

    Q) Do you think that Gmail can push certain messages as your important message, even though they are not, and thus can act a marketing strategy ?

    Looks good to me. As we need to filter those mails initially and depends on that it will automatically moves the email.

    It looks more like a notice board for me. And yes, this addition helps organize things within gmail account.

    you can mark it as important again, so next time it will show in priority inbox.

    Another one that still waits to try it. :) But it seams like it will help in faster preview and shorter time frame for Gmail in the working morning for users.

    i have just tried google priority inbox and noticed a serious problem, this can arise if you are having huge number of starred mail in your inbox.

    In such a case your important and unread mail will come over top and that's ok, but places for other unread mails that will come below starred mail will decreases, so yet it is organized but you have to check other pages too if you are having huge number of mails daily.

    So i will say for few user it will be organized but for few it can cause panic.

    I liked it a bit as you can get your friends mail at top or any mail which you want to.

    ya that's right but again if you are having a large number of starred mail then your new mails will appear on next page, that's really doesn't suits me
