Google has rolled out a beta version of their ‘Priority Inbox’ over the last few days (it got to my Gmail account today) to give their users a way to…well, prioritize their email. It basically works by sorting emails based on who you email the most, emails you open the most, etc…
The ‘priority’ emails get shown on the top of your page with the rest sorted below. As with other features with Google’s Gmail, you can apply filters to the Priority Inbox such as how many items to show on the top of the page as well as read or unread items and more.
Here’s a funny little video by Google that explains it. Do you use Gmail and if so, have you tried Priority Inbox yet? Let me know in the comments below:

I personally don’t need it because I don’t get a ton of emails yet, but it could definitely be useful in the future.
I’ve been using it for awhile and I’m still on the fence about it. I don’t like how it puts emails in the ‘priority’ section that I’ve taken out. Once I take them out….I want em out for good!! Unless I decide to put them back in.
