blog Gmail labels sorting order.
Oct 2010
Gmail's labels are great for they let you organize your constantly growing mailbox in a non-final way. That is, using the 'tagging' concept, you can assign the same tag to multiple items, or different tags to the same items, add/remove tags etc etc. All of this is well known and documented. One thing though still surprises me. Why the heck can't we set the labels' order arbitrarily? (now they are automatically sorted alphabetically).
