From new and improved picture-editing effects such as saturation and watercolour to video editing and formatting capabilities such as trimming, fades and reflections, Office 2010 opens up a world of design options to give life to your ideas.

Enjoy the familiar Microsoft Office experience on the web--With Office Web Apps, you can take advantage of greater flexibility when working in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote. That's because you can access your work at any time from a Smartphone or computer with an Internet connection.** Create amazing documents using Office 2010 and then easily post them online so you can share your work with others from across town or around the world. It's convenient and easy.

Connect, share and accomplish more when working together--Now you can get more done when working in groups. The new co-authoring experience with Word 2010, PowerPoint 2010 and OneNote 2010 lets you work on a file with multiple people simultaneously from different locations. Brainstorm ideas, control versions better and meet deadlines faster - it's a snap with Office 2010.

Store and track all your ideas and notes in one place--With Microsoft OneNote 2010, you get the ultimate digital notebook for tracking, organising and sharing your text, photos, and video and audio files. New features such as version tracking, highlighting and Linked Notes give you more control over your notes so you're always on top of the latest changes and sources of your information.

Create powerful data insights and visualisation--With new data analysis and visualisation features in Excel 2010, you can easily track and highlight important data trends. For example, the new Sparklines feature delivers a clear and compact visual representation of your data with small charts in a cell. The new Slicers feature lets you filter and segment your PivotTable data in multiple layers so you can spend more time analysing and less time formatting.

Access your work across devices and platforms--Office 2010 gives you a familiar and intuitive experience across PCs, Smartphones*** and various Web browsers so that you have the freedom to use the system from more locations and on multiple devices.

Deliver more compelling presentations--With PowerPoint 2010, you can effectively engage your audience by embedding and personalising videos within your presentation.

Create sophisticated business process forms with little or no code--InfoPath 2010 is designed for both advanced business users and developers, depending on the type of forms-based solution and organisation needs. Without writing code, advanced business users can use InfoPath 2010 to design sophisticated electronic forms to quickly and cost-effectively gather information. Developers can create advanced forms for departmental and enterprise business processes, including composite applications and workflow sequences, with InfoPath 2010, Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and SharePoint Designer 2010 - using little or no code.What are the Office Web Apps?
The Office Web Apps allow you to work with your Microsoft Office files from more places and on more devices by providing browser-based viewing and lightweight editing of Word 2010, Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010 and OneNote 2010 files. Access your work at any time from a Smartphone or computer with an Internet connection.** The Office Web Apps are designed to work with Internet Explorer, Safari and Firefox and requires SharePoint 2010 or a Windows Live account.
What is the Microsoft Office BackstageTM view?
Microsoft Office Backstage view replaces the file menu across the core Microsoft Office 2010 applications. Backstage view helps you find commonly accessed commands when opening or finishing a document, including opening new or existing files, defining document properties, and sharing your information.
Designed using data on product feature usage generated by the Customer Experience Improvement Programme, the Backstage view also brings together related tasks, making it easier to work with your documents. For instance, printing tools - previously spread across several commands (page layout, preview, print) - are all together in one Print tab within the Backstage view. You can assign metadata to a file, check it for accessibility, or make sure it's finalised and ready to share with others. Backstage lets you share, print, and publish your documents with just a few clicks.
Backstage view is extensible. For businesses, IT can incorporate work and information flows from other systems and highlight them right within the most useful Microsoft Office application. For example, Backstage view lets you bring those back-end accounting or HR workflows right into Office 2010.
What is the Ribbon?
The Ribbon replaces traditional menus and toolbars with a fresh, highly visual layout of commands, organised into a set of tabs, to help you find the features you need fast. The Ribbon was introduced in Office 2007, when it enhanced a few of the Microsoft Office applications. It made the available commands and tools more visible and easier to access so you could focus more easily on your content.
In Office 2010, every application has the Ribbon, including favourites such as OneNote 2010, Publisher 2010, InfoPath 2010, SharePoint Workspace 2010 (the new name for Microsoft Office Groove 2007) and the new Office Web Apps. The Ribbon brings new features such as Outlook 2010 Quick Steps to your attention and is customisable so you can personalise it to your work style.

What does co-authoring mean in Office 2010?
Co-authoring refers to the ability for multiple authors to edit a document, presentation, spreadsheet or notebook at the same time, allowing you to connect, share and accomplish more when working together. With the new co-authoring experience available for Word 2010, PowerPoint 2010, OneNote 2010 and Excel 2010 (through Excel Web App), you and your co-workers can work on a file from different locations, brainstorm ideas, control versions better and meet deadlines faster.
