1. Office Web Applications: For many online enthusiasts, the arrival of the web version of Office is probably the most exciting thing about the new suite. The web applications will work in multiple browsers and even in most mobile browsers too, including the iPhone. Documents will look exactly the same no matter whether you’re viewing them in the Office Suite itself or within the web browser.
2. Collaboration Features: You’ll now be able to collaborate with other users thanks to a new feature that lets two or more people work on a project at the same time and see each other’s changes in real-time.
3. Instant Sharing with PowerPoint: Built into PowerPoint 2010 is a tool which allows you to invite other users on the net to see your slideshow.
4. Search & Navigation in Word: In addition to the new collaboration features Word 2010 also introduces some great new navigation and search options. When searching through a document, you can now see results as section headings, thumbnail previews, or as excerpts. Also, a new Navigation Pane replaces the old Document Map and lets you browse by sections and headings or by thumbnails – much like Adobe’s PDF does.
5. Paste Preview: Across all Office apps comes a new “paste preview” function which lets you see what your document will look like before you paste in new content from elsewhere. You can preview different formatting options for the content you’re pasting in and choose which one you want before actually pasting.
