Gmail Labels: Drag - drop, hiding and some other features!

A few months ago Gmail got some new buttons and keyboard shortcuts to make labeling easier, especially for those of you accustomed to that familiar folder feel. Now they're making some more changes to Gmail's labeling toolkit.

1) New location for labels
You'll notice your labels in a new location on the left of your inbox (or on the right, for those of you using the Arabic, Hebrew, or Urdu versions of Gmail). Instead of having their own section, your labels are now above your chat list, grouped together with Inbox, Drafts, Chats and other system labels.

2) Label hiding and showing
You now have control over which of your labels show. We've done our best to get you started by automatically showing the labels you use most and hiding the rest. Label hiding is my favorite new feature, since it saves me from having to look through labels I rarely use. If I ever need to reach any of my old labels, I just click the "more" link.

3) Drag and drop
You can now drag messages into labels, just like you can with folders. This does the exact same thing as "Move to" -- it labels and archives in one step.

Power Portal

September 03, 2014 at 09:56AM: You can save 4 hours per week or more by switching to Power Portal as your web browser. Power Portal is a Smarter Web Browser that saves you hours of time by helping you do more in less clicks. For example: When you do a search on google, typically you click the first result and click around on that page. But to go back to google, you have to retype your search or click back 5-10 times. Power Portal takes your list of web results with you and stores them in a sidebar, so you can simply click the next item instead of going back and forth. You could also apply the same search term to another search engine. Browsing a social network is much faster with the mobile view in our left sidebar while opening links in the main window. Follow your friends, their stories, and their photos across social networks and photo sharing services with our social contact manager. Read full article: FeedMyApp
