Google introduce Gmail Priority Inbox Beta
Priority Inbox automatically separating out your most important messages, and it makes easy for you to read and respond to the messages that matter. Priority Inbox splits your inbox into three sections: "Important and unread," "Starred" and "Everything else".
As messages come in, Gmail automatically flags some of them as important. Gmail uses a variety of signals to predict which messages are important, including the people you email most (if you email Bob a lot, a message from Bob is probably important) and which messages you open and reply to (these are likely more important than the ones you skip over). And as you use Gmail, it will get better at categorizing messages for you. You can help it get better by clicking the 
or 
buttons at the top of the inbox to correctly mark a conversation as important or not important. (You can even set up filters to always mark certain things important or unimportant, or rearrange and customize the three inbox sections.)

Skype Introduces 10-Way Video Conference Call
Skype has just released a new version of Skype 5.0 for Windows that doubles group support. It now allows for up to 10 video callers. Skype 5.0 beta two is already available for download. It includes 10-way video calls, automatic call recovery and a cleaner user interface. The update is also said to improve call quality and includes a number of bug fixes to make the overall experience much smoother.
Of course, the standout feature is 10-way video calling, something that certainly one-ups their own previous offering and makes it suitable for even larger virtual team meetings and mini family reunions.
Still, Skype does caution that 5.0 is beta, and hence, very buggy. It's also limited to Windows users, and 10-way video calls require all group chatters to be using the same second beta version of the application.
