Er? I thought they already did add sync with SkyDrive and co-authoring (at least in Word and Powerpoint) in 2010?

- kenjackson 16y agoThey have syncing with SkyDrive. But no co-authoring that I know of. Link?

"Microsoft Office 2010 enables technology known as co-authoring, which gives you the ability to edit the same file at the same time as people in other locations. No more waiting in line to get your work done, no more getting locked out of your files, and more options for real-time collaboration with your team. What applications enable co-authoring? You can use co-authoring in the Office 2010 versions of Word and PowerPoint. Co-authoring via shared notebooks is also available in Microsoft OneNote 2010. And, simultaneous editing is also available in Microsoft Excel Web App and OneNote Web App." Although it looks like there are kinda weird limitations on it, in that apparently Word and PowerPoint co-authoring only work in the desktop apps (and not in the web apps, but you have to save to SkyDrive), Excel co-authoring only works in the web app (and not in the desktop app), and OneNote is the only one that works in both the web app and desktop app.
- kenjackson 16y agoThanks. The UI for this is not very obvious. Had I known this with Word I would have used it for a while now. I'll have to try it now.
