Preview files in Google Drive with new hovercard feature
To review files in Google Drive, you currently have to open each file manually or right-click on a file and then click “Open with > Preview” from the context menu. Additionally, if you want to see what updates have been made to a file, you have to open the file and view the Activity Dashboard. Now, Google is introducing file hovercards in Drive to improve this experience and help you complete tasks faster without having to open multiple tabs. When you place your cursor over a file icon in Drive on the web, a hovercard will now appear with a thumbnail of your file and other relevant information, such as file type, file owner, who recently modified the file and when they last modified the file.
Designed together with education experts and institutions, Google is bringing Gemini for Google Workspace to education users 18 years and older with two new paid add-ons, introducing a new and powerful way of working, teaching and learning with generative AI. Google is also adding new functionality to its flagship Gemini conversational experience to help everyone learn confidently. And soon, Google will introduce additional data protection for Gemini users 18 years and older logged into their Workspace for Education school accounts, free of charge.
Filter, sort, and display your Google Meet hardware devices by product service status
You can currently filter, sort, and display your Google Meet hardware devices by whether they are online, offline, or experiencing an application load-failure. Now, Google is expanding these parameters to include whether the Calendar and Jamboard services are turned OFF. The connection between your Meet hardware devices and these two Google products is critical for connecting and collaborating. Allowing admins to filter for devices that match these criteria will help them identify potential gaps in hardware devices and product configurations, which they can quickly rectify.
