Microsoft Office suite is world’s most popular software bundle used by millions of people around the world to increase the productivity. The software is so popular that it has the power to bring Microsoft and Apple together in an iPhone launch event. If you use Microsoft Office for your daily work, here’s a great news for you.
As expected, after the launch of Windows 10, Microsoft is ready to roll out the new Microsoft Office suite 2016. The company says that the software will be broadly available from September 22. Here, “broadly” term is used as not everyone will be getting the Office 2016 that day. Users of Office 365 will have to wait a little longer and the customers with volume licensing agreements will get the software on October 1.

Microsoft Office 2016 includes lots of new features for PC users that bring the functionality of co-editing the documents at the same time and syncing the files to OneDrive. This version also brings new themes including a black visual style. 
It should be noted that Office 2016 for Mac was released back in July and the standalone version was slated to arrive in September. The new version of Office for Mac included new features for Word, PowerPoint, OneNote, Excel, Outlook, and Translator to take advantage of the new features of iOS 9, larger iPad Pro and watchOS2.
Apart from the features list, Office 2016 also brings a new update model. The users who are paying for the subscription version of Office for Companies, they’ll also get the Current Branch of update i.e. all the new features and updates on September 22. The company is also bringing Current Branch for Business, which will bring 3 cumulative feature updates per year apart from the monthly security patches. This new Current Branch for Business is aimed at the enterprise.

Intel announces the first 14 nanometre processor

By
At the Computex conference in Taipei, chipmaker Intel has revealed a fanless mobile PC reference design using the first of its next-generation 14nm "Broadwell" processors. The 2 in 1 pictured here is a 12.5" screen that is just 7.2 mm thick with keyboard detached and weighs 670 grams.  The Surface Pro 3  – for comparison – is 9.1 mm thick and weighs 800 grams. It includes a media dock that provides additional cooling for a burst of performance. The next-generation chip is purpose-built for 2 in 1s and will hit the market later in  2014 . Called the Intel Core M, it will be the most energy-efficient Intel Core processor in the company's history with power usage cut by up to 45 percent, resulting in 60 percent less heat. The majority of designs based on this new chip are expected to be fanless, with up to  32 hours of battery life,  offering both a lightning-fast tablet and razor-thin laptop. Intel is also delivering innovation and performance for the ...

Facebook Now Supports PGP To Send You Encrypted Emails

By
You can now instruct Facebook to encrypt every email it sends to you so nobody — not even the NSA — is likely to be able to read your messages anytime soon. All you have to do is import your public PGP key into your Facebook settings and you’re good to go. The problem here, of course, is that most people have no idea how public/private key email encryption works and how to even get started with it. In the wake of Edward Snowden’s leaks, a number of organizations, including Google, promised to completely hide the complexities of end-to-end email encryption from regular users. Very few of these products have materialized so far, however — not for lack of trying, but because this is actually a very complex problem, both from a technical and user experience perspective. Facebook uses the well-established PGP scheme (the GNU Privacy Guard implementation of  OpenPGP, to be precise) to encrypt messages and tools lik...

Uber, Google and other tech employees form Coalition of Black Excellence

By
When black employee resource groups from a variety of tech companies come together, black magic happens. More specifically, black excellence happens. The Coalition of Black Excellence Week, spearheaded by Uber Litigation Counsel Angela Johnson in collaboration with black ERGs from over 40 tech companies like Facebook, Google, eBay, Lyft and Microsoft, kicks off this Monday in the San Francisco Yay (Bay) Area. The idea for CBE Week came in part from Johnson’s experiences living in Washington D.C., and being able to attend events put on by the Congressional Black Caucus, she told me at Uber’s headquarters this week. “When I moved out to the Bay Area, I really wished there were similar types of experiences for tech,” Johnson said. “And I thought if we could bring together different black ERGs, or diversity and inclusion committees, or people who were interested in some of the issues the black community is passionate about, a lot of positive change and impact could come from that....

Oculus’ New $99 Samsung Gear VR Makes Serious Virtual Reality Affordable

By
At half the price of its last mobile VR headset, the new $99  Oculus-made  Samsung Gear VR is cheap enough to unlock virtual reality for the mainstream. Revealed today at the Oculus Connect conference, it works with the whole 2015 line of Samsung Smartphones including the Note 5, S6, S6 Edge, and S6 Edge+. It will ship in November in time for Black Friday. Compared to the $199 previous Gear VRs that only worked with fewer phones, this headset will be a lot more accessible. The new Gear VR is 22% lighter, making it more comfortable to wear. The trackpad on the temple of the headset also now has a tactile directional pad on it so your finger will know where it’s touching. The previous Gear VRs had a smooth trackpad and sometimes it was to tough to know if you were touching it or just the unsensitive shell of the headset when you couldn’t see for yourself. There’s also a new Gear VR Gamepad which all the Oculus Connect conference attendees will get for free. It features an...
