Google's finally added technology that's been used in Outlook, Thunderbird, even Yahoo Mail, for the better part of the last decade and a half or so?

Filters and sub-folders! Yay! Amazing new technology! XD

Yes, I read the article, yes I see it's a little different than that and it'll be interesting to see how it works in practice. Still, I've been using filters in Yahoo mail, Outlook (when I work at a company that uses Exchange/Outlook), and Thunderbird (or Eudora years ago), to do this exact thing. Email from a friend? Goes here. Email with a specific subject line for a group? Goes here. It's not complicated or mind boggling.

I know, I'm being one of those party-poopers that craps on the Googlites' fun, what can I say... though I use it as my primary mail, it's always missed several key features for me. And their Google Talk still sucks. Bugs that have been in it for years, WTH Google?
