Linkedin Discussion - Gmail Priority Box

In the beginning of the week Gmail launched a new feature Priority Box, which is an algorithmic solution to email overload. It automatically processes your email by factoring in variable such as who the email was sent by, how many people it was sent to and the keywords included in the subject and body of the message in order to determine which email is important. Emails that fit to the category (which you can set by yourself) appear in the dedicated box.

Seems like the feature is something very useful, but to find out if it proves useful on practice I decided to start a discussion on Linkedin. Here are results:

1. Many respondents found this feature very useful for those who deals with abundant correspondence

2. Learning Curve not so steep

3. Automatic recognition is seen very helpful


Among the main features there are:

1. Prioritize Filters
2. Customize Sections
3. Start With a Clean Slate
4. Use Your “Inbox” for Folders
5. Test Priority with Multiple Inboxes
