I want to create custom labels for Gmail which would sit right on top of the inbox. What is the best way to accomplish this, Greasemonkey scripts or Google gadgets?

  • Not sure if you can do this with Google Gadgets.

On the left hand side of Gmail, below the Compose button, you will find the option to Create new label.

The create new labels:

  1. Select the Gear on the right side of the page
  2. Select Settings
  3. click the "Label" tab
  4. The labels page is divided into sections: system labels, circles, Labels.
  5. In the labels section is a "Create New label" button.

Any of the labels can be made to appear on the left side of gmail. Using the show/hide option. This make is easy to pick the label when you want to see all the messages with that label.

Any label can be used as the basis of a "multiple-inbox"
