Nick Starr has noticed that Gmail now offers you the choice to select all your conversations and delete them all in one hit.

Previously, you had to hack through the screens selecting fifty at a time and deleting each group. Now it is much faster:

Select All in the Gmail interface and the option to select all the conversations with the same label or in the same category appears to the right.

I don’t know how long this option has been around. It was news to me.

Slash and burn.
