For someone who gets 100+ emails per day (I am sure many of you relate), sometimes unread emails get lost ... buried under my endless gmail pagination thread. Oddly enough, gmail does not offer a way to easily view unread emails without also showing all of my unread spam, listserv emails and other emails that get auto-filed to directories I rarely look at.

Fortunately, my dear friend who works at Google gave me a tip that works. Just copy and paste this into your gmail search box, and voila, all of your unread emails -- and only the ones in your inbox:

in:inbox + is:unread
