Using the Windows SkyDrive in Office 2010

Here is a neat tool that can especially help when you are working on team projects.  Using windows SkyDrive you can save your documents on a SkyDrive account and access them from anywhere you have internet access.  Also, this allows you to give permission for others to edit your documents as well, all without the hassles that come with emailing your documents.

Here are some quick steps on how to save your documents in your SkyDrive.
  • Open the file you want to save
  • Click the File tab on the ribbon
  • Click Save and Send in the left pane
  • Click Save to Web
  • Click Sign In enter your Windows Live ID and password (if you do not have a Live ID you can get one here.) 
  • Click OK
And now you are done! No need to go to another site and upload your documents.  Also, if you have an older version of Office you can still use this feature, it just requires you to download an Add-in.
