#Microsoft365 – We’re living in the era of Failure to Filter. Too much information, whether through search or discovery, comes our way every minute. Microsoft has done so much to help us filter out and find information faster. The “Shared with Me” addition to office will help even more.

DISCLAIMER:  I WRITE ARTICLES ABOUT OFFICE / MICROSOFT 365. CONTENT IS ACCURATE AT TIME OF PUBLICATION, HOWEVER UPDATES AND NEW ADDITIONS HAPPEN DAILY WHICH COULD CHANGE THE ACCURACY OR RELEVANCE. PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND WHEN USING MY BLOGS AS GUIDELINES.

What does Microsoft say:  The Shared (on Mac and iOS) or Shared with me (on Android or Windows Desktop) view lets you see the files others have shared with you. After you’re invited into the document, that document will automatically appear in the Shared or Shared with Me list. Office will try to show you more relevant shared documents at the top of the list. Read More…

Shared with Me

In Office you can go to the File Tab > Open and click on Shared with Me. This will display any files shared with you. Soooooo much easier than going looking for that mail with the link right?!?!

Sharing Files:  The advantage of saving your file in the cloud and then inviting people to access it or sharing a link to it in email is that you can update the file content at any time and everyone you share it with will have the latest version. If you don’t want to save your file in the cloud, you can send it as an email attachment.  Read More…

Please keep on making my life easier. Thank you Microsoft 🙂

Purpose of this blog challenge:  I will write 365 blogs in 365 days around Microsoft 365. I did a similar challenge with Office 365, blogs can be found here. I won’t just be talking about the new Microsoft 365 subscription model. I will be sharing any news, tips and tricks around Office / Office 365 / Windows / Mobility and Security. And let’s not forget all the great new Apps & services available.  A lot of what I’ll share on Office and SharePoint will also be applicable to none “Office 365” versions.
