As many of you head out for a well-earned vacation, we thought it would be good to give a collective shout out to everyone who’s dipped their toe in our G Suite Tips site previously to wish you a relaxing and happy summer break.

We’ll be here when you get back to your desks, with fresh G Suite tips, news and some exciting new Tools, slated for release in the Autumn.

In the meantime, have a great holiday. Send us a postcard or tweet us your holiday snaps and don’t forget the sunscreen.
