In this edition of CatchUp.... 
We had a chance to speak with SketchUp's Product Manager John Bacus about the new move and what has got the SketchUp team excited about the past, present and future There's also a great step by step tutorial by Wyatt Thompson on using Tree[d] trees in SketchUp. Adriana show how using transparent textures can save you modeling time. FollowMe vs. FollowMe and Keep. Plus, using the Save a Copy As... command and how the Revolve went from SketchUp to Kickstarter to reality.

Regarding the sketchup tip: Save copy as.
Another alternative, if you want a totally automatic versioning system. Filehamster.

Great stuff! Thanks to everyone who puts this great publication together, and thanks for including me in it.  FWIW, the tree[d] link works for me in Chrome.
