If you use Google Docs, you can thank me for their latest and most awesome feature.

For two years, I've been hounding them about adding tabs to Documents much like you would have tabs on an Excel worksheet (or Google Sheets). I even tried to write a Google Extension to get this feature to work. Thankfully, it now is a standard feature.

These TABs allow you to create entire libraries of documents within one document.

For example, if you are conducting research, you can pool all of the research into individual tabs and have a main document tab with the actual research paper. This enables all of your work to be in one place.

For each of the monthly CISO Forums I host, I create executive summaries. These were all separate documents. Now I can combine 4 years of historical work into one seamless resource library and no longer have to hunt for individual documents.

If you are writing a book, as I am, you can create a tab for each chapter, idea, appendix, etc. This is a much more efficient way to organize your thoughts and keeps you from jumping around to many different sources.

It is also more efficient than trying to maintain a linked Table of Contents especially when you are just building out a document.

Thanks, Google! I am super excited about this new feature! I hope it helps you too!

Do you need a good laugh today? For you tech nerds or geeks out there this was made for you.

How thieves can use a video you posted to social media to scam you You may think you would never fall for a scam. But with artificial intelligence (AI) and other technology, thieves are always learning new ways to trick you. So we need to be learning new ways to fight back! They can even use your own social media posts to trick you.

Here's the way I see it. The market is still very tight for engineers, pen testers and architects. But there are quite a few people (newbies and leaders) sitting on the sidelines.
