Gmail’s new Priority Inbox is a great new feature posted earlier today on Gmail’s blog. It was interesting for me to note that I have a personal email account and a newer work email account and I can use Priority Inbox on my work Gmail account. On this subject their post says:

Priority Inbox will be rolling out to all Gmail users, including those of you who use Google Apps, over the next week or so. Once you see the
New! Priority Inbox” link in the top right corner of your Gmail account (or the new Priority Inbox tab in Gmail Settings), take a look.

… so you might not be able to use Priority Inbox yet, but watch for it during this coming week.

My work email can get very time-consuming since I get hundreds of emails every couple of days and I prefer to have automation as opposed to manual review and categorization – even though I use the free version of ActiveInbox for Gmail/Firefox for that.  If you use Gmail  Priority Inbox you can customize it in Settings > Priority Inbox and you will see a new link above Inbox labeled Priority Inbox so you can switch easily to your standard Inbox view.
