Microsoft Word 2010

The official blog of the Microsoft Word product team
Some Other Office Blogs Involving Word 2010

With my introductory post and Scott's framing post, we hope that you have a good sense for many of the advancements coming in Word 2010. And while we will be posting some Word specific details later this week, in the meantime, I would like to introduce you to the blogs of four shared teams in Office. These blogs are great resources for features and functionality that are new to Word, but not new to only Word. The Ribbon in Office 2007/Word 2007 is a great example of one of these shared features.

To give a quick bit of additional context, the Word team (i.e. the team that writes this blog) is best thought of as a piece—albeit a large piece—of a much bigger puzzle that makes up the Word application. Building off of the Word 2007 Ribbon example, for the 2007 release, the Word team worked very closely with…

Given that we're continuing this type of collaborative engineering in Word 2010 with shared features like the new Backstage View and Office Web Applications, you can learn a lot about Word 2010 by reading the blogs of the other Office teams that we're working with.

We'll certainly continue to cover any and everything about Word on this blog; these blogs are just great complements.

I'll be tagging these types of cross-Office link posts as "shared" moving forward. Hope these are useful.

I just need to figure out how to back up QAT and building blocks in case of crash, without buying 3rd party software. Can you help? It seems Microsoft did away with the back up wizzards for office 07. I am using OS XP.
