WINDOWS 7 REVIEW
Windows 7 gets the basics right. Here's what you need to know about the new OS.

    What if a new version of Windows didn't try to dazzle you? What if, instead, it tried to disappear except when you needed it? Such an operating system would dispense with glitzy effects in favor of low-key, useful new features. Rather than pelting you with alerts, warnings, and requests, it would try to stay out of your face. And if any bundled applications weren't essential, it would dump 'em.
    It's not a what-if scenario. Windows 7, set to arrive on new PCs and as a shrinkwrapped upgrade on October 22, has a minimalist feel and attempts to fix annoyances old and new. In contrast, Windows Vista offered a flashy new interface, but its poor performance, compatibility gotchas, and lack of compelling features made some folks regret upgrading and others refuse to leave Windows XP.
    Windows 7 is hardly flawless. Some features feel unfinished; others won't realize their potential without heavy lifting by third parties. And some long-standing annoyances remain intact. But overall, the final shipping version I test-drove appears to be the worthy successor to Windows XP that Vista never was.

Some Tips for Microsoft Word and Excel

    When I need help with Office, I don't click the help button on the upper right of the ribbon− I go to Google or Bing. Curiously, Google is more likely than Bing to send me to useful pages at Microsoft.com.
    Here are some tips, therefore, on convenient ways to do things that Office doesn't offer much guidance about, either on its menu or on its ill-conceived online help system, which has a bad habit of not telling me what I need to know.
    Whatever your level of Word and Excel expertise, you'll find a technique worth remembering among these tips.

Use Word to Write and Post to Your Blog

    Word 2010 includes a feature that lets you post to a blog directly from Word's editing screen. Here's how it works. From Word's File menu, choose New, ...1... select Blog Post from the gallery of document types. Word opens a document with a placeholder title, a horizontal line, and an empty space for typing your blog post. Type in a title and a posting, and click Publish on the Blog Post tab of the Ruler. The first time you post, a wizard will walk you through the process of entering your blog's URL, your username, and your password. Click OK and your posting appears on your blog. The Ribbon also includes a Manage Accounts button that lets you revise or add to your list of hosting sites.
    Microsoft seems to have lost interest in this feature, because it no longer works reliably with some services, such as Blogger, and continues to list Windows Live Spaces as a provider though Windows Live Spaces no longer exists. But the blog post feature is smooth as silk with other services, such as WordPress. (Here's a funny coincidence: Blogger is owned by Google; WordPress partners with Microsoft.) Microsoft wants you to use its free Windows Live Writer instead of Word, but I prefer not to clutter my disk with multiple programs when a single one gets the job done.

Ten Tips for Microsoft Word and Excel

Our latest tips tell you how to make Microsoft Office 2010's word processor and spreadsheet apps perform some handy tricks that Microsoft has documented poorly.

By Edward Mendelson

    PCMag.com's Microsoft Office 2010 tips collection continues, this time with ten tips for Word and Excel users. Most of these tips are fairly straightforward, and most apply to the most recent versions of Office. Some of them, however, offer new twists for the latest version of Office. Expert users will be familiar with some of these ten tips, but we hope that any user will find at least a few of these to be useful.
    What kind of tips am I talking about this time? Finding ways to perform poorly documented functions in Word and Excel. One of these tips, for example, tells you what to do when Word inserts a horizontal line across the page when you only wanted to type a few dashes. In the past few months, everyone in my family has tried and failed to wrestle an unwanted horizontal line out of a Word document. It might not sound like a big issue, but once you've got it in your document, good luck finding help from Microsoft on how to get rid of it.
    Some software vendors, like Adobe, continue to provide help systems that work like improved versions of traditional software manuals. In those apps, every menu item, every toolbar icon, is carefully explained, and with a little patience you can find all the information you need. Microsoft, ...1... , provides you with a kind of information supermarket, with huge essays about topics you don't care about, dozens of selections when you only need one, and no consistent way to find the information you want.

Combine Portrait and Landscape Pages in a Word Document

    Microsoft Word expects you to organize your documents in a highly-structured but not very intuitive way. If you want to format most of a document in portrait mode, but one or two pages in landscape, you [modal] simply change the orientation of the current page. Instead you need to insert a section break before and after the text you want to format in landscape mode, and then apply landscape orientation to the section that you created. Place the insertion point at the point where you want landscape orientation to begin. On the Page Layout tab, choose Breaks, then, under Section Breaks, choose New Page. Then move the insertion point to the end of the text you want to format in landscape, and insert the same kind of break. Then put the insertion point anywhere between the two breaks; return to the Page Layout tab, and click the down-pointing arrow at the lower right of the Page Setup group. In the Page Setup dialog, on the Margins tab, select Landscape orientation, then go to the "Apply to" dropdown and select This Section.

    Google Maps returns to the iPhone

    By Hayley Tsukayama, Published: December 13, 2012
    Google announced late Wednesday that its Maps app is back for the iPhone.

    Google Maps had been the default navigation service on the iPhone since the phone was first released in 2007. But earlier this year, Apple kicked the app off its mobile device and replaced it with its own mapping program, Maps. Many iPhone users balked at the notoriously inaccurate Apple navigation program and the loss of Google Maps, saying they would wait for Google to resubmit its app to the Apple store.
    The addition, however, doesn’t let Apple off the hook for improving its own Maps, which is playing catchup with Google as it tries to gather the amount and quality of navigation data it needs to bridge the gap between the two apps. Google Maps is known for being more comprehensive and generally more accurate than the other navigation apps out there.
    Google’s new iPhone mapping app adds features from Google’s Android that some Apple users have been longing for such as turn-by-turn directions for walking, mass transit and driving and a smooth integration of Google’s Street View technology. Navigation on the app is quick and intuitive.
    Google Maps also pulls transit information from several sites to make it easier to plan trips. In Washington, users can choose ..I.. I they want to go by bus, Metro or some combination of both and get clear route instructions with station names and clearly labeled bus stops.
    In this latest version, Google also makes it easier for users to flag the service if it gives the wrong directions. A shake of the iPhone triggers a dialogue box that offers the option to report errors or bugs directly to Google. There is at least one feature from Google Maps for Android that’s missing from the iPhone: the ability to save a portion of a map for offline use, which comes in handy when the phone’s battery runs low.
