OK… I did NOT know this was coming, but it is *really* cool! You can now use Microsoft Stream to record screen capture videos up to 15 minutes in length. Think of creating your own short training videos where you show something on your screen with narration and everything. Here’s how that works…

Replacing your video in Microsoft Stream using the same URL
There are times when you’ve created a video that needs to be updated, but you’ve already published the video’s URL in too many places to count. You’d ideally like to just replace the video and keep the same URL. Now you can in Microsoft Stream. Here’s how that works…
