Huh, before reading this article - I didn't know you could turn the tab interface off. I thought I'd try it, just so I would be able to nitpick and say "Hey! You think it's a choice for them, but it actually ain't!". If you'd like to disable the tab interface in GMail, here's how you do it: Log on, click the gears in the top right corner - below your user profile icon. Select "Configure inbox" and de-select "Social" and "Promotions". I first thought it was impossible to do this when I found this configuration page, because the first option is "greyed out" and unclickable. This seems like the first time you're allowed to not eat the Gone Google Again-bullet - which is good for me as a user! Sometimes I really don't want to get your new feature or design.
