    Google switches up how you email collaborators in its office apps.

    Now, when you choose “Share” within an already-shared Google Drive folder or document, you can click a new envelope-shaped icon to write an email to those you’ve shared it with.

    The feature is rolling out now for some, with a broader rollout starting August 26th.

    A screenshot showing the Google share dialog with a new envelope icon circled in red, on the same line as the header “People with access.”

    Threads is giving Fleets a shot.

    Meta is now testing posts that will disappear after just 24 hours, the company confirmed to TechCrunch. (You may recall Twitter’s short-lived version of this, Fleets.)

    When replying to one, you’ll see a timer next to the person’s name, along with a banner at the top that says the post will disappear, taking any replies with it, the outlet writes.
