Microsoft reveals a new feature of the Outlook web service, simply called 'Spaces'. Microsoft describes them as follows: Spaces helps you organize your emails, meetings, and docs into easy-to-follow project spaces. Forget worrying about dropping the ball; Spaces helps you stay effortlessly on top of what matters.
Spaces are a 'board' where you can organize things related to a common topic, .e.g to a project. It allows organizing emails, meetings, and various office documents. With Spaces, the user can quickly build a list of related emails, relevant docs, and calendar events by performing a search from a single location. Spaces support to-do lists, notes, and more. It is a work-in-progress, so more features to come.
Currently, the list of supported objects for Spaces include:
- Sticky notes
- OneDrive files
- To-do lists
- Deadlines
- Weather forecast
- Links to web sites
In the future, users will be able to attach office documents, including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel documents.
