Technology Updates

Microsoft has  introduced  co-authoring support for Microsoft Word documents stored in OneDrive in the Office 2016 Preview. This means that users will be able to collaborate with each other in real-time and make changes while working on a document. Initially, the feature was only available on Sharepoint online, but starting today, everyone with access to Office 2016 Preview will be able to use the new co-authoring feature. Microsoft said in a blog post, "Earlier this year we announced real-time co-authoring support for Word 2016 as part of the Office 2016 Preview. For the last several months, this feature has been available to preview users co-authoring Word documents stored on SharePoint Online. Today, we are pleased to announce that real-time co-authoring is also available as a first-look for Word documents stored on OneDrive as part of the latest Office 2016 Preview release."

The Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is the worlds first 4k display equipped smartphone. Sony has also included a new fingerprint scanner at an innovative location, right on the power button. The fingerprint scanner makes it easy to unlock the device efficiently, its quick and very accurate, making it a pleasure to use.

The Developer Preview of Android Marshmallow is available now to owners of Nexus phones, with the final version launching on the new  Nexus 5  and new  Nexus 6  within the next few weeks. The OS will then become available to other Nexus devices, and within a few months to flagship  phones  and  tablets . Don't expect to get it on your device (unless it's a Nexus) until late 2015/early 2016. The latest reports come from  Talk Android  and suggest Google will unveil the Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 on 29 September, with the phones available to pre-order from 13 October. By our reckoning, that means they will go on sale in early November, and Android 6.0 will then begin to roll out to other devices. If you really want to get your hands on Android M now then you can download the Android M Developer Preview, but only if you have a  Nexus 5 ,  Nexus 6 ,  Nexus 9  or  Nexus Player .
