5.2 Managing Your Personal Workspace

Your personal workspace in Vibe is a place where you can store your personal files, blogs, photos, and all other types of Vibe folder entries.

Your personal workspace also includes relevance tabs that help you easily keep track of tasks and calendar events, get informed on new entries, view shared items, and more.

The relevance tabs are located in the home page of your personal workspace. These tabs enable you to get quick access to important information that pertains directly to you.

The What’s New tab enables you to find new content in your teams, in the places you are following, or across the entire site.

  1. In the home page of your personal workspace, click the What’s New tab.

  2. Select My Teams, Places being followed, or Site Wide, depending on where you want Vibe to search for new items.

    All of the new items recently added are displayed in the left side of the page, in the What’s New section.

5.2.2 Viewing Recently Posted and Recently Visited Entries
