New look for the Google bar

Posted on 05:52 by Unknown
Here's a heads-up that there will be a change in how you access other Google apps while using a particular Google app (for example, opening your calendar or Drive while in GMail). Those of you who have personal Google accounts have probably already noticed it.  The new look is now coming to Google Apps  for Education (what we use at CVU).

Essentially, instead of accessing Calendar, Drive, etc. via the bar across the top...


...there will now be a simpler bar with an icon that looks like a 3 x 3 grid.


Clicking this icon will bring up your other Google apps (note that these are determined by which apps CVU has enabled.  The image below is from my personal Google, which has different apps enabled).


I'm sure that when this is rolled out, Google will pop up messages to let you know, but a heads-up never hurts!
