I don't know, i like the usual workflow in gmail. The is "important and unread" (my priority todo), "starred" (my todo or remember some stuff list) and "everything else". Why would i need to do so much processing as this guy suggests?!

I don't care for the large "everything else" list, it's just the latest stuff i got for a quick look, that's ok. The first two lists are far more important and always contain only a few items that are worked through.

So in the end i guess everyone has his own best workflow but i also think that the gmail team did a pretty good job with the current design.

Hint: the only thing i really hated was the "comfortable" design theme that became the new default.. Luckily it's just a click away to get to the "compact" version, much much much better!
