FREE Software # In an amazing announcement on Monday, Microsoft said that Outlook for Mac is now free to use! All you need to do is use it. There’s no need for a Microsoft 365 account, subscription, or license required. It’ll work with just about any E-mail account from Yahoo!, GMail, iCloud to anything with an IMAP endpoint. Outlook for Mac is built for Apple Silicon. It is a native app designed for macOS.

Enterprise Microsoft 365 users (E3 or E5) have a new feature to play with today. If you are an Insider running on either the Beta CHannel or the Current Channel (Preview) you can use Loop directly inside of Outlook for Windows! Scenarios for this include keeping track of a project status and to collect knowledge using a Q&A Loop component. I would use this to gather feedback from other teams to find out if something is either implemented or not.

Microsoft has had a great tradition of bringing us technologies that help us multitask, remember Windows 8 where you could have a whopping one app running at a time? Well they have just announced a way for customers on the Microsoft 365 Personal or Family subscription to have E-mail open links in a browser. Oh, that’s not innovative enough for ya? Well, it’ll open the E-mail in one pane and the link in another.
