Gmail improves with excellent shortcut

Gmail had an overhaul in its interface the last few days. It’s a bit cleaner. With the revamp also comes an excellent addition to the keyboard shortcuts in Gmail. With the key “[” you can archive an open message and immediately open the previous one. If you use “]” it opens the next one. Finally! No longer switching back to the Inbox, but processing your email in one big swoop. Gmail is already my favorite app, but this shortcut was missing for me. Also, make sure this shortcut only works in the new interface. If you use Lifehacker.com’s Better Gmail extension (if not, you should) also upgrade that one to version 2. The Gmail Macros in the extension work perfectly with the mentioned Archive-Next/Previous shortcut in Gmail itself. Check out this article on the Gmail Blog for more improvements.

This is what I have been waiting for so long!

While I’m still using Yahoo for my mail (on account of having used it all my life), I’ve heard some very good things about Gmail. Files are extremely easy to attach. Large files don’t take forever to upload. Another wonderful thing about Gmail is that it also delivers your message on time together with a notification of what time the message was sent actually. So one of these days, maybe I really should take the time to switch.
