Technology Tips of the Week: Creating New Files from INSIDE a Google Drive Folder

Organizing Google Drive can be a tedious task. Today, I want to suggest a simple practice that can help you keep your Google Drive organized and save you time! By creating a new Doc, Sheet, Slide, Drawing, etc. from INSIDE a created folder,  the file will be in the correct location from the beginning, no need to move it later! 

If you have not created any folders in Google Drive, then you should! It is easy breezy...







From Google Drive, choose "new", then "folder". You can name the folder and even add a color to make it noticeable. 



To add color to a folder in Google Drive, like in the picture to the right,  just right click on the folder you created and choose "Change Color"


NOW FOR THE POINT...
To save time, effort, and keep organized in Google Drive- Create the new Doc, Sheet, Slides, Drawing, etc. from INSIDE THE FOLDER! 

 Go to a folder you created and open it. Choose "New" then "Doc" or whatever you want to create and the document is not already in the correct location!
