The long anticipated technical preview of Microsoft Office 2010 is getting closer to reality with the activation of the technical preview website at http://www.microsoft.com/office/2010/.
There is a link to sign up to be considered for the tech preview in the top right corner of the page – it takes less than 5 minutes to sign up. However, signing up is no guarantee of getting into the technical preview as evidenced by this message on the sign up page:
The Microsoft Office 2010 Technical Preview program is a limited, invitation only opportunity to experience early, pre-release versions of Office 2010 and Visio 2010.
Due to high demand, we cannot guarantee entry into this program, but we are currently accepting registrations for a waitlist. By registering, you are signing up to be considered for the Technical Preview program and you will be notified within one to two months.
But hey – what can it hurt to sign up – never know if you might get in.
The only other significant info on this site is introduction videos to all the various Office programs:
- What’s New in Microsoft Office 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft Word 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft Excel 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft PowerPoint 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft Outlook 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft OneNote 2010

- See What’s New in Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft Web Applications 2010
- See What’s New in Microsoft Mobile 2010
The longest video is about 3 1/2 minutes.
I am most excited about Outlook since I live, eat and breath in it every day. What program are you most looking forward to in Microsoft Office 2010?
