Continuing the preview-while-we-wait theme; I wanted to highlight another little treat in GTDInbox v2 that I’m particularly fond of 
I think this is easiest to reveal with an example, so here goes…
When I receive an email, I rack my brains to try & remember if that person has written before… it’s hit & miss at best. Therefore I made GTDInbox capable of, after the conversation is loaded, right clicking their name, choose “Show All Conversations”, and have all existing conversations with them popup in a new window (without moving me away from the conversation).
Similarly, if I’m reading a conversation, and I notice something I want to research deeper in the text, I can do a Gmail search, but have the results shown in a new window - again so I do not have to leave the conversation.
Conceptually, it’s letting you do useful research without disrupting your normal work flow.
Actually, as I’m writing this I’ve just had another thought… say I receive an email from ‘Bob’ that is labelled ‘P/BuildHouse’. It would be neat to be able to quickly see all other conversations I’ve had with Bob about the BuildHouse project. Hmmm….

I wonder if you’ll do it like this:
1. find this person’s record in contacts
2. search all his email addresses
Also, what about transparent LinkedIn lookup? Especially when a new person writes me for the first time.

@chuck
Interesting idea… that’s actually more rigorous than my current approach.
Right now, it takes the name & the email; and returns all conversations with either of them in. So, it finds _everything_ it can (including ‘chuck’s that may not be you - letting you be the final judge of who’s who).
As for LinkedIn… that’s even more interesting. However, I’ll hold off x-site functionality for a later version

Great idea, Andy! I’m an “all in the inbox” style user, I use the search function and Gmail Manager to open exactly this functionality in another tab, so that I can sound like I know what I’m talking about when I respond to people…
I can’t wait for your new release!
