Instead of attaching files in an email, you can link to them.

Send links to file located in shared areas. This is useful because you won’t have to keep saving the files you send between colleagues, as you will be using the same version of the file. It also allows you to share large files which many email systems will simply reject.

 

You can turn your notes from OneNote into a calendar entry

 

You’ve typed up an idea into OneNote, and now you want to take action and dive into it more. Instead of copying and pasting and setting a time manually into Outlook, just click the ‘Outlook Tasks’ option in the ribbon at the top of the page.

In Excel click ‘Bing maps’. Then select the data you want to use and click ‘insert sample data’.
