Microsoft Reveals Windows Blue Project

Microsoft has revealed more details about its Windows Blue project, which promises to bring a big update to Windows 8.

The new features for Windows 8.1 look likely to hit public preview at Microsoft's Build developer conference in June - quite how that will work in practice remains to be seen, but it's likely you won't be able to plug it into an existing Windows 8 install.

A private preview is likely in the meantime. The final Windows Blue release date will be late in the year, while there will also be some new Windows Blue hardware.

There aren't likely to be too many massive surprises from Blue, which our writer Kate Solomon says "we feel a bit guilty for passing off as a minor Windows update" now that we've seen plenty of Windows Blue screenshots.

Is Windows Blue actually Windows 8.1?

Windows Blue will not be the software's official name. Shame. Instead Windows Blue is just the internal name for the software.

So speculation has turned to what the software's actual name will be. Microsoft's Windows Blue will officially be deemed Windows 8.1, said a new report in early April.

Mary Jo Foley of ZDNET's All About Microsoft blog said the Windows 8.1 tip came from a reliable source and screenshots of the About Windows screen also appeared on Twitter - see below.

In stores, the update will still be called simply Windows 8, according to Foley's source - that means Microsoft isn't about to start naming its incremental OS refreshes like Apple does (like OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion). But it does indicate a new attitude to software updates that it's previously called Service Packs.

One thing we definitely would say, it's unlikely that Windows Blue will mean the merging of Windows 8 and with Windows Phone 8 into a single product.

Office 2013 Web Apps final version now live on SkyDrive

SkyDrive users will find their online office documents now launching in the new and final edition of Office 2013 Web Apps.

Microsoft's Office 2013 Web Apps suite is now a final and official part of SkyDrive.

The online Office suite has been available for SkyDrive users since July. But it's been in a customer preview mode still being tweaked by Microsoft. A tweet yesterday from Omar Shahine, a SkyDrive group product manager, confirmed that the final edition is now live.

SkyDrive users who create or open a Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or OneNote file will see it pop up in the completed 2013 edition of Office Web Apps. Opening a file created under the previous version triggers a message that says: "We're converting your file so you can edit it. Click version history to find your original file."You can then edit your document using the associated application in Office Web Apps. Each application kicks in its own series of enhancements over the prior version, as described in today's Microsoft blog.

The Word 2013 Web App offers higher-quality graphics and images along with an improved layout. You can now add and view comments. The Web version also provides new tools for page layout and images and a word count status.

The Excel 2013 Web App now lets you merge cells, autofit columns, and "AutoSum" your figures. Other features includes the handy fill handle, formula assistance, and 3D charts.

The new PowerPoint Web App supports audio and video playback on a PC, tablet, or phone. You can also insert videos, add transitions and animations, and apply any theme to your presentation. And multiple users can add their own comments and appear as co-authors.

Finally, the OneNote 2013 Web App lets you search for items on an entire page or within a single section. You can click anywhere on the page to add a note, image, or tag. And your notes can appear on the Web through a viewable URL for PC, phone, and tablet users.

The Office 2013 Web Apps suite is also accessible on Outlook.com.
