If you enjoy the handy chat feature inside shared docs on Google Drive, it appears Microsoft is adding the feature to its web-based productivity suite as well. According
WinSuperSite, Office
Online is getting those sidebar convos in the coming weeks, as a new
feature called document chat will offer the collaborative boost.
For
now, it looks like Word and PowerPoint will be the only apps to get the
new tool, complete with notifications that'll alert you to respond as
needed. This means you can inquire about the real-time changes you see, rather than guess why your colleagues swapped around your sentence structure or wait for them to reply to a comment.
