POWER TIP

Gmail Priority Inbox

Priority Inbox helps you get through your email faster by putting important messages at the top of your inbox. Gmail uses a variety of signals to automatically identify what's important, including which messages you open and which you reply to. Incoming messages get separated into three customizable sections: "Important and unread," "Starred," and "Everything else." To try it out, click the Settings link in the upper right-hand corner of your Gmail account and visit the Priority Inbox tab.

NEW PRODUCTS & UPDATES

Google Instant

Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. Now, you get to the right content much faster—you don't have to finish typing your full search term or even press "Search." Use the results from what you've already typed as feedback to help you formulate a better search term, and adapt your search on the fly until the results match exactly what you want.
