Make Gmail better

There are a lot of things to make Gmail better:

• Gmail – Tips – great tips by Google.com itself!
• Master the New Gmail with These Tips, Shortcuts, and Add-Ons
• Top 10 Gmail Labs You Should Enable
• Read more on Lifehacker.com: gmail site:lifehacker.com – Google Search

But I won’t bother you with these.

I will bother you with two other things (which I found about via A Linkbuilder’s Gmail Productivity Setup | SEOmoz):

• Rapportive

To quote them:

Rapportive shows you everything about your contacts right inside your inbox.

• Boomerang for Gmail – Scheduled sending and email reminders

Again, a quote:

Boomerang for Gmail is a Firefox / Chrome plugin that lets you take control of when you send and receive email messages.

• With Boomerang, you can write an email now and schedule it to be sent automatically at the perfect time.
• Remind you if you don’t hear back - There are times you need to make sure you follow up within a specific time frame after sending a message. You can select to only be reminded if nobody replies, or regardless.

Finally, if you want to get some statistics on how you use Gmail, you can see:

• ToutApp – Your Year in Emails

P.S.: I have personally used all of the recommended applications, and I’ve read a lot of tips on how to use Gmail.
