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!
