E51: Drive notifications for content violations, Meet Hardware now can be used as Digital Signage, Meet Breakout Room participants auto move back to original meeting, Meet Duo Drama, Log4J 2, and more
Welcome to the penultimate episode of 2021 as we head into the new year and get ready to add video to this and our other tabGeeks shows. Don't worry, if you prefer audio, we will still be pushing the audio as podcasts, and the video will be of us recording the podcast, not converting it into a video show that also dumps the audio track into a podcast.
If you listen to us on Spotify, they just launched ratings, we would greatly appreciate it if you could give us a rating! Thank you!
