Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

on
Microsoft is rolling a new update to Copilot Notebooks that make collaboration even easier: the ability to share Copilot Notebooks with your colleagues.  Personally, I like Notebooks because they feel almost like small, personal agents I don’t have to configure. They give me a safe space to collect notes and documents and then work on them over time. With this update, that personal space can become a shared space for a selected group of  colleagues, without compromising security or permissions. I think it is also important to note that your chat and chat history within the Notebook stays private. The web rollout began in late October and will finish by December, while mobile access starts in early November and are related to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ( ID 506851 )  You can also read more about the Copilot Notebooks experience on the Microsoft website here . If you like this update and want to stay informed about similar improvements, feel free to follow me on LinkedIn!

An "important" lesson from day one at Lync 2013 Ignite

on
Lync 2013 comes with new features and new functionality. To support all of these new functions, there has been introduced a big set of new PowerShell cmdlets.
This didn't come as a surprise to me, as I have been playing around with the preview for a bit, and I have been reading Tom Arbuthnot's excellent post on the subject.
One of these "important" new cmdlets is the "Invoke-CsManagementServerFailover" command. Why?
Well, If you are anything like me, you type as little as possible, and you use the TAB as much as possible, you might to look out for this one. My "default" is to type "invoke-csma" + TAB. to get to the Invoke-"CsManagementStoreReplication" and then hit enter.

Unless I now hit enter twice, i will start the process of failing over the CMS.

I have no idea of how many times I'll fail over the CMS before I actually learn to hit tab twice, but I know I'll get there in the end.

So what was the important lesson here? It's not what you have to learn, but what you have to unlearn :)

For future reference, here's a list of all the cmdlets for Lync 2013
