365 Message Center Show

Configure multiple home sites to serve up a different home page and Viva Connections dashboard for different audiences. It has been a while coming. We first talked about it in episode 242. Daniel Glenn and Darrell Webster tell us more about it and its limitations.
Teams Collaborative Stageview will allow Teams to open content in a separate window and conversation alongside it in a sidebar. Apps will need to be developed to take advantage of this new form factor that emphasizes collaboration over conversation.

Let your team members know when you intend to work remotely or in the office. Outlook's new Work Hours and Location feature uses your Outlook work hours settings and your calendar. Set the days and hours you work, and whether you will work remotely or from home. If you need to change it during the week, adjust it in your calendar at the top of a day where All Day events are displayed. Copilot's Semantic Index was announced as the mapping technology powering Copilot's relevant and actionable responses. But it will also enhance enterprise search results for E3 and E5 customers. OneDrive sharing links become easier to manage with a new user interface that filters based on people, groups and what they can access. You can simply search for a person, see how they can access the file, and adjust the links as required.
