it feels to us a lot like 1995 we have the most vibrant exciting new version of windows in years we complement it with the most vibrant exciting new release of office in years I've got PowerPoint up and running here the first thing you'll notice it's a very sleek a very clean beautiful user experience I can use my fingers to navigate as I'm on this touch base device so i can just go ahead and tap and go through my different slides that are here maybe i'll drop into the slide sorter mode i can do things as you would expect like pinch and zoom so i can zoom out or i can zoom into my presentations so let me give you a look at what the OneNote application will look like if I want to enter content there's a bunch of different ways to do that of course i can use mouse and keyboard but we also of course enable the pen and stylist so i can go ahead and write anywhere I want to over my notes if I say hey you know this 930 is wrong I'll just cross that out so let's get together at ten o'clock my handwriting is terrible here a little nervous I can circle things that I think are important i could annotate on the map itself if we want to meet down here at those particular points i can do those sorts of things you get the idea now like the rest of the office applications sharepoint has a new user interface as well much cleaner simpler a design that's easy and intuitive for people to get access to the tools that they need now we share point in social you can follow you can keep track of anything all kinds of different content over on the right here you can see the listing of the people i'm following the documents i'm following the sites i'm following the tags i'm following i can go ahead and just click and go into all the documents and see the ones that i'm looking at sharepoint will also suggest documents that i should be following based on the documents themselves and the things that i have followed in the past i want to show you an experience in excel one of the ways that we're trying to make every user in Excel a power user the scenario I want to go through here is a relatively common one for people that are taking content from the web and wanting to do some analysis on it this is a spreadsheet it's got content that in this middle column here this B column you can see all the fields are concatenate together this is something that happens you copy from the browser and you put it into something like Excel and it's not quite in the right format that you may want it to be we have a new feature in Excel that can help break apart that content so you can go and do analysis on it now historically people would literally rekey that content or if they were more advanced they might write macros to go ahead and do that i want to show you with a new feature called flash feel how simple it can be in the new Excel I'm going to go and pull out a field let's say I want to pull out the names of people I'll just go type john and i'll type jenny and watch as i hit enter that'll fill that entire column all the way down with with that name i'll show it to you one more time here i'll type in advertising i'll pick a different word and then events and again fill that all the way down and notice excels pretty smart here it gets that digital marketing two words it smartly pulls that out into the right column now for the last demo i want to touch on one final experience that i think is particularly exciting as we think about windows 8 as we think about a new class of devices in office I want to go ahead and join a meeting that's in progress all its adlink meeting that's here I'll go ahead and start that and this is going to start in high definition multi-party video conference just in one click here Brian you there I'm there how are you correct Brown you sound great i'm going to go ahead and start my video now let's say we've got this video started i want to add somebody let's go down the list here and we'll go ahead and add sanji i can just drag and drop her with my finger that's all it takes and i can go ahead and add sandhya to the meeting itself she'll pop up but a quick second there
