Inbox by Gmail is an app that de-clutters your account by categorizing similar emails into groups such as Social, Travel, Finance, Updates, Forums and Promos. For instance, notifications from Facebook and LinkedIn are bundled into Social, while newsletters from your bank will appear within Finance. The app still lets you view all the labels you have created in Gmail and move new emails to them.
In case you want to reply to a missive or call the sender later, just swipe left to set a reminder within the app. Inbox then sounds a notification at the time specified by you, which can either be dismissed or temporarily postponed.
The app even lets you preview and swipe through attachments like images, read shipping information related to your online purchases and more, without opening the email at all.
At present, you will need to visit google.co.in inbox to request an invite before installing the app on your phone.

Analyze your work
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a tool called Immersion that trawls your Gmail or Yahoo! inbox `To' and `From' only to display its contents as an interactive graphic. It analyzes your inbox to depict all your contacts as `nodes' along with the connections to other contacts (people who have been CC'd in correspondence).
Larger circles mean you have received more emails from that person. Click on any node, and Immersion shows you the number of mails you have exchanged, the date of the first, as well as the last email you have received.
An overall analysis of your inbox reveals the number of emails it in cludes, and the names of your top collaborators. It will display the total number of emails sent and received from the day you signed up for the account. And you can even look at this data for the past year, month, or week.
Finally, when you're done, you can logout and delete this meta data from MIT's servers. Ah yes, don't worry , the service does not read through the contents of your emails.immersion.media.mit.edu
