Google Drive - Add a doc to two folders

In Google Drive you can add a single document / file to two different folders. To do this you select the document / file and hold down SHIFT+Z on your keyboard. This will change the Move To option to Add to. The button will also turn green instead of blue. Any changes made to the document / file will be reflected in both folders, because it is the same file.

Have you created a Google Doc and needed to share it publicly (i.e. with parents) but didn't want to enter all the parent emails into the doc for them to view. Did you know you can publish a Doc, Slide presentation, or Spreadsheet to the web and then share the published link with people outside of your school for them to view? Students can also use the "Publish to the web" setting to create very basic websites using Google Docs.
