I invited Microsoft MVP Mathew Gilbertson for a deep dive into OneNote and was blown away by its capabilities.

We looked into OneNote's almost unlimited capture methods and how it supports the free-form, informal notetaking that helps us think better.

If you're using the Microsoft ecosystem at work and want to improve collaboration and the exchange of ideas, I highly recommend you watch this video.
