Mere triage does not stem the flow
GMail promises that its recently launched Priority Inbox will help you tackle information overload. But sorting messages by priority does not make them go away—putting the juiciest pancake on top does not make the stack any lower!
Improve the speed of reading and processing
Really dealing with information overload means processing emails more efficiently. It means skimming emails much faster, and confidently discarding unimportant messages altogether. This is where Topicmarks can help.
Mail-in to Topicmarks and you only ever read a summary
Just forward any unimportant message from your inbox to your Topicmarks mail-in address, and Topicmarks sends you back a quick summary. Confidently skim the summaries and pick the few messages you really have to read. Safely discard all the rest—if you ever need them again, they are safely stored in your Topicmarks brain forever.
