We’re all very well connected these days. That’s good! But without some specialized filters the real-time web and social media can certainly start to take over our lives.

I recently posted a screencast about how Syphir can make Gmail more manageable and powerful. Now I want to show you how you can use Syphir to delay your Facebook comments from showing up in your Gmail inbox until you’re ready for them.

Take a look at the screenshot below to see what the filters rules and actions are. Then head over to Syphir and create your own filters to manage web-overload.

One thing to consider if you’re going to do this is that you’ll need to apply a label to your FB notifications so that later you can look at them all easily. I didn’t specifically mention this in the original post but it’s something to be aware of. I used the label ’Bacn: Facebook’. If you don’t know the term BACN look it up here.
