Learning new Microsoft Office tricks in "just a minute"
It’s one thing to have Microsoft Stream as your video portal for all your video content in the organization. However, if you’re using SharePoint Online, you might well want to embed a Stream video (or channel!) directly onto your page. You can do that with a Stream web part, and here’s how that works…
I am a big fan of Microsoft Stream in Office 365. It’s a great way to share the video content in your environment in a managed and intuitive way. And now, it’s even better in that you can use the Microsoft Stream mobile application to watch your video content on the go! Here’s how that works…
Here’s a feature in Excel that I never noticed before… like *that’s* a surprise! 🙂 If you need to add a screenshot in an Excel spreadsheet (perhaps for documentation), you can use the Screenshot feature that’s built into Excel… and you can manipulate the image once it’s out there!

Have you ever gotten an email from someone that looks more like a novel than a request? Have you wished you could just have someone read it to you while you focus on something else? Well, with the Read Aloud feature in Outlook, you can now do that! Here’s how…

One of the nice things you can do with Stream is follow a channel where people are posting videos on a particular topic. Here’s how that works…
As I get older, I find that my mind is much more… “efficient” when it comes to “erasing” short-term memory… such as “why did I have this particular email open on my screen, and did I already respond to it?” Well, I just saw an option in Outlook that closes the original email when you do a Reply or Forward, eliminating all the screen clutter.
