Windows 8 Features

| Friday, November 25

The software giant also has a huge story to tell and has only just begun that process. Steven Sinofsky, chief of the windows and Windows Live division at Microsoft, teased a long list of the remaining features that Microsoft has included in Windows 8. Thanks to WinRumors reader Thor Olav Sørensen, we have a good list of all the features. Some features in the list sound interesting whilst others have been covered subsequently at BUILD. Regardless, it’s a great list of what Microsoft is working on in Windows 8.
