Gmail Labels Get Drag and Drop & Other Improvements

Google has  added a number of updates to the way labels work in GMail.

1.New location for labels

Now your labels are now above your chat list, grouped together with Inbox, Drafts, Chats and other system labels.

2) Label hiding and showing

Google has minimized the number of labels that appear in the default list as to not push the chat bar down too far.You now have  more control over your labels.Label hiding is new feature, which automatically showing the labels you use most and hiding the rest.You can show, hide, or delete a label by clicking the down-arrow to the left of that label.

3.Drag and drop
You can now drag messages into labels, just like you can with folders. This means that if you want to label a mail, you can simply drag and drop it over the label in your left sidebar and you’re done.This  will allow me greater Inbox maintenance.

The best part about the labels is that with the new changes they're becoming more folder like.
