What's the "sync" between Gmail and Inbox like? If you Snooze an email in Inbox, what happens to it in Gmail? If you put it in a bundle, what's that do to it in your inbox?

Re: Google Inbox
#372The basic assumption behind this seems to be that marketing spam in email will keep increasing and instead of fighting against it, organising content around it is better approach. Most people (who nowadays carry lot of personal/group communication around facebook/whatsapp) still get a lot of mails on product deals, newsletters etc. Email is also the tool for login, password recovery and for other utilities like that.…
The promotional cluster is only a very small part of Inbox's feature set.

#373I've been using Inbox at El Goog for a while now, and I am happy to answer questions (in between dealing with a newborn...) FWIW, I really like it, and use it exclusively for my work and personal accounts. Inbox functions very much more like a ToDo list than it does an email client. Here are the workflows I have: Work: I filter all mailing lists into different clusters that I have appear at 7AM every morning. I then…
Does it have ads?
Not currently, to my knowledge.
Re: Google Inbox
#374Earlier quoted context omitted.
Marketing like this is supposed to form a link between the context (Brooklyn hipster lifestyle) and the product. So next time you hear about Inbox you'll think of the lifestyle and subconsciously go "maybe if I have inbox my life will be more like those cool happy good looking rich Brooklyn hipsters on the ad". Their target market with this ad is people that want to be like or have this (or a subset of this). Apple i…
It is more like: If I show somebody Inbox I would be perceived as those happy, cool.. because this person has seen that ad[1]. (does email is cool, and happy?) [1] http://www.meltingasphalt.com/ads-dont-work-that-way/
Interesting, thanks for the link!

#375I'd love to get an invite, if anyone has an extra lying around.

I'm kind of a big deal, so you need to send me an invite.

One feature that's unclear to me, if you don't mind: when you sweep a bundle, does it sweep only the items displayed on the screen, or everything in that category? For example, if I have 500 emails in my Forums bundle and sweep what I can see, will it sweep just those 25 or all 500? I don't want to make a mistake by testing this myself. :)
I think it will "sweep" all unpinned emails, but even after the emails have been marked as Done, you can still easily access them by clicking on the bundle (e.g. "Travel").

What are the hurdles to allowing Inbox for Google Apps users?

Re: Google Inbox
#379I'm wondering if the inbox is integrated with Google Keep for tasks and if there will become API's available?
It's to bad Google Keep only has an internal API (that isn't available to us)

I wrote a review of the Inbox on facebook (that was my deal with the person that invited me). Cross-posting here if it interests you. My review of Google's new Inbox, based on two hours of use (thanks [redacted] for the invite). First the good parts: 1. I really like bundles. The idea that I can "Sweep" all the promotional emails I get in one click fills me with glee (and marketers with anxiety, I imagine). It's also…
Interesting review. It almost sounds odd that someone likes the new "Compose" in a Google product...
If you can spare an invite, I'd be glad to try it out: ozhozh at gmail dot com -- thanks in any case.
