MS Office Beta Notes This is a side-blog where I intend to keep all of my notes from Beta testing new versions of Office. This will keep them all in one place for future reference. I started this with Office 2003, and am bringing it back for the 2007 version. This is not an official Microsoft site, this is just the ramblings of one IT guy.

Search folders Steven's got an interesting look at how search folders work in Outlook 2003. They are pretty interesting, but maybe the most interesting thing is that in Longhorn, this may just be how your whole file system works. Monday, May 26, 2003
OneNote screen capture Jevon has a neat screen capture of what he's done in OneNote. I tend to think he's onto something with it being a good place to brainstorm ideas. Especially when you have the ability to take snippets and move them around and organize them, etc. That, I think is the real "plus" for it in the 1.0 version. If they can add some things, like XML output, that would make it easy to pull those same snippets into other applications, or pull together multiple OneNote pages from multiple sources, into something that you can then create a web-based version for, to stick on an intranet, we might really be on to something. Of course all of this completely depends on getting people to use it. That's the $64,000 question, are people going to use OneNote to brainstorm, or take notes instead of paper/pen? Is it as easy? No, not yet. Do the added features make it worth the extra effort? In some cases I could see where it would, but in others, I don't. The market will decide, I'm sure. :)
