Where, oh where has my Meet window gone?

Sometimes your Google Meet can go missing among all the other Chrome tabs and windows you might have open, and it can be hard to find it when you want to go back to your meeting window. In this week's video, I will show you a super quick tip for how to locate your ongoing meeting.

💎 Bonus tip: This same location will show you other actively playing audio or video as well. So, for example, when you realize in a call that one of your tabs is playing music or talking at you, you can use this method to find it quickly.

💎 Watch the video to see the details.

Search among your bookmarks!

Bookmarks… it's great when they are handy, but I never have time to organize them. In my Ideal World I would have my bookmarks categorized into folders in a way that makes them really easy to find. But realistically, I now have so many bookmarks that even the best categorization would make it very very very slow for me to find them.

So now I bookmark without categorizing.

💎 Watch the video to see how I find them easily when I need them.

Time to tame your tabs!

I think on any given day I probably have 100+ tabs  😱 open across my various Chrome windows and Chrome profiles. The different facets of my business and life have their own relevant pieces of information, and I often have to switch from one to another throughout the day. So it doesn't make sense for me to close tabs just to have to open them again soon after.

If you are a fellow Chrome user who also keeps a zillion tabs open, you'll be glad to hear that there are actually a few built-in tools that you can leverage to keep those tabs more organized.

💎 Watch the video for some tab organizing tips.

❓ If you learned a new way from these tips that will help you manage your work in Chrome, let me know in a Comment.

Who is this file shared with anyway? (cont'd)

Last time we talked about labeling files within the filename field to indicate the level of sharing. This is great for people who use the gmail.com version of Google files or if they are on the Google Workspace Business Starter edition.

But from Business Standard Edition up, you have the ability to use a more robust feature called Labels in Google Drive to fulfill the need to mark files that are shared externally.

💎 Watch the video to see how to set up the ability to Label file in Drive.

❓ Have you tried the badge labels or the standard labels? Which kind of labels do you like more. What do you use them for?
