**Dear tabGeeks Family,**

**It is my absolute pleasure to announce that effective immediately tabGeeks is about to get a whole lot more amazing!**

I have taken a step back from my day job as IT Director, to spend approximately 30 hours a week dedicated to building tabGeeks, expanding our content, and engaging with all of you. It has been a difficult year and a half for everyone, and one of the brightest things that helped a lot of people get through the pandemic was communities like this one. We have an amazing community in our [**tabGeeks Slack**](/content/slack/index.html)**,** along with all of our wonderful listeners and attendees, and I am so happy to be able to begin this next chapter. My goal is to grow this business so I can do this full time, and bring on a production staff to continue creating amazing content and begin hosting incredible events again.

**When the pandemic** hit and our conference was canceled via the lockdown, we had excellent traction and were set to start making a profit and it all evaporated. I took several months off from the business and any thoughts of a conference to deal with the pandemic and lead the charge at my day job to transition our teams to the new reality. In January, I started a second podcast that I have been hosting weekly discussing all the Google Workspace updates that Google pushes out every week. Both podcasts; [**Google Workspace Recap**](https://www.workspacerecap.com/), and [**Supporting IT Support**](/content/supporting-it-support/index.html), have been doing incredibly well, so Shani and I decided now was the time to give tabGeeks the business the chance it deserves to turn into a long-term profitable business and get things growing again.

#### What’s Next?

**First off** will be a lot more engagement from me.

**I am** restarting production on [**Supporting IT Support**](/content/supporting-it-support/index.html) (haven’t published in a while,) expanding both productions to video as well as podcast formats so those who enjoy talking heads on Youtube can enjoy as well!

**We will** be launching a new show called [**SaaS Showdown**](/content/saasshowdown/index.html) which will discuss the world of SaaS and all of the amazing products to choose from.

**Our weekly newsletter** has finally launched with weekly updates on the best in tech, our shows, and top news. Scroll to the bottom of the page to sign up!

**Lastly**, I am working on the design for 2 entirely new shows: One on Emergency Disaster Response from a technology assistance point of view, and the other discussing the conversations around remote/in-person working and what the workplace of tomorrow will look like.

**Finally**, I want to hear from all of you! What do you want to see next from tabGeeks? Any interest in a conference perhaps? Other ideas for shows? Swag? My (virtual) door is always open to our wonderful community members, please reach out and let me know your thoughts! I am extremely excited to take this next step and begin the next phase of tabGeeks!
