OK, so I’m supposed to be studying for my CNA exam I’m taking on Friday. As everyone knows, it’s good to take a study break now and then while studying. So, I’m taking a break. I just read how to "set up Outlook to organize your email in the same way that GMail labels work" in an article by Rock Hymas. The author, shows that Gmail’s label organization is really nothing all that new, as Outlook has had categories for a while. What Outlook did not have before Outlook 2003, however, was search folders. Basically, search folders allow for quick searches of your Outlook documents that met certain criteria, such as sender, date, or subject. Combining the categories with search folders, it is pretty easy to create a Gmail-like experience right in Outlook. And don’t bother saying anything about how Outlook is full of security flaws or how you can get the same functionality from open source e-mail clients or whatever. The fact of the matter is, regardless of the aforementioned facts, I still do like Outlook for its relative ease of use and nice presentation of information.
