Most of my email messages go to the same few people — sometimes the same person may hear from me several times in one day! Frequently entering the same address is inefficient, even with Outlook’s AutoComplete feature.

For the last year or so, one of the questions I’ve been asked again and again has been: “Can I use the new Office user interface in my own product?” On one hand, it’s an immensely satisfying question to hear, because it means that others in the industry believe in the value of what we’ve built and see how the sound UI research we’ve done can benefit their own products. Creating the new user interface has been our team’s passion for the last three years, and we love sharing the fruits of this hard work.
