Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

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!

The "new" look for Office on the web


It's been awhile since Microsoft announced "The new look" in Office on their desktop versions (June 2021). It has been available as preview for many customers, but it will now (2023 Q3) slowly roll out to customers everywhere. It is not the biggest of changes, but there are some smaller changed to icons and layout. It's not a big change, but it's nice to see office on the web getting the same "facelift" desktop users have been accustomed to. Having the same look and feel will make it easier for office users as they often have to navigate both versions in their daily work.

Here is a little reminder as of how to toggle between "preview" and "old" feature: The new look of Office - Microsoft Support

And here is the roadmap iten to keep an eye on (they may change the schedule after this post is live): Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365
