Smarter Collaboration and Content Tools

Use the universal insertion menu to easily add things like tables and images, in addition to smart chips, directly in Google Docs. Simply type “@”, and you’ll see a list of recommended files, people, meetings, as well as different content elements and formats to insert into your work. You can also search all available components.
This is a quick and simple way to add rich elements to your content, the universal @ menu makes it easy to preview and read relevant documents, find associated meetings and stakeholders, add tables and images, and more, directly from Google Docs.
Use the @-mentions everyday — to open up new, powerful collaboration capabilities. Use the new interactive building blocks—smart chips, templates, and checklists— you will more easily connect people, content, and events into one seamless experience.
Having the right tech-enabled environment and access to a robust set of collaboration tools that work from anywhere are the building blocks for success in a hybrid work model. Google Workspace not only allows people to work securely from any device, it helps people stay productive wherever they are. A new feature release coming to Google Workspace soon will be the ability to start a Google Meet call from a document everyone is working on, so co-workers see and hear each other during their collaboration whether in the office or at home.
Follow this handy tip:
If you start a new conversation with a bold headline (ctrl-b) or by *using asterisks* you’ll be able to find a particular thread by the bold conversation name, rather than losing it amongst several different chats.
Giving a bold name to your chat means it will stand out amongst other chats in the chat or Space so everyone can find it and contribute to the same thread rather than several people starting a new chat about the same topic.
And another quick tip: Shift-Enter starts a new line without posting the chat window content before you are ready.
