1. Skip Inbox
When filtering incoming mail, if it’s not something you need to read as soon as you have time, just tell it to skip the inbox. This will cause the email to be immediately archived, but keeps it marked as unread. This works especially well for many of the automated emails you receive from companies and websites (like Facebook) and gets you one step closer to Inbox Zero.
2. Hide Read Lables
Go into Settings and then to Labs. Find “Hide Read Labels”, and enable it. This causes labels that don’t contain any unread email to be hidden from view. It keeps your screen a little less cluttered and allows you to focus on new emails. Your labels are still very easy to reach, just start typing the label name in the search bar and it will pop up as one of the auto-fill options.

Love your site man keep up the good work
Gmail has an “undo send” option. Super helpful when you hit send by accident and realize it a few seconds later. You’re able to set the time for how long you have to hit undo. It’s under Gmail settings –> Labs –> search: undo send –> enable.
