One of the features that makes Gmail different is its use of labels instead of folders. Sure, labels can serve pretty much the same purpose — they can help organize mail or flag messages for follow up. And unlike with folders, messages can have several labels, so if I get an email from a friend about a trip we’re taking together, I can add both a “Friends” and a “Travel” label to it. But it’s not always obvious how to use labels, especially for people who are new to Gmail and used to using folders, and it hasn’t helped that some common tasks have been more complicated than they should be. For instance, to move an email out of your inbox and into a label you first had to apply the label using the “More actions” menu and then click “Archive.” Starting today, the buttons and menus at the top of your inbox will look a bit different: Instead of having to first apply the label and then archive, you can just use the “Move to” button to label and archive in a single step — just like you would with a folder.…

Over the past few days we’ve made a lot of small changes to Gmail’s contact manager which, combined, should make it easier to organize the contacts you want and get rid of some of the cruft. Here’s a quick summary: 1. Contact merge (and an important caveat about auto-complete)Many of you may have seen Monday’s blog post about Google Sync which mentioned contact merge. Nothing had been annoying me more than seeing several copies of “Jeff Jones” on my iPhone — only one of which actually contained his phone number. I now have one “Jeff Jones” which contains all of his contact information. To do this, select the contacts you want to merge and then click “Merge these…” as shown below: Now that you can sync your contacts to a variety of devices, being able to merge contacts is more important than ever. Please note that as we mentioned on Monday, there’s a known issue with merging contacts that affects address auto-complete, making merged addresses sometimes come up in a suboptimal order (e.g. auto-complete may bring up your friend’s work address first even though you usually email their Gmail address). We’re working on fixing this so the…
