Microsoft Upgrades Storage Capacity For Office 365, Exchange Online Users

Posted: 01 Sep 2013 07:07 PM PDT

Office 365Microsoft boosts email storage limits for users

If you're a current Exchange Online or Office 365 user, you'll be seeing an increase in storage capacity from 25 GB to 50 GB. The upgrade is being rolled out right now, and by November it is projected to be complete. These new storage limits give Microsoft a substantial advantage over Google Drive, so if you were looking for a reason to switch, this might be what clinches it.

Via TechSpot, Microsoft's premium service plans receive unlimited email storage, but primary mailbox sizes are increasing to 50GB from the get-go for no additional charge. Current users will have to do nothing to enable the changes.

Those who already pay for Exchange Online Plan 1, Office 365 Small Business, Enterprise E1, Government G1, Education A2, and Midsize Business will all be seeing this boost in email space.

Are you still a faithful Google Drive user or could these upgrades act as an incentive for you to switch?

SkypeSkype could possibly integrate 3D technology

Most 3D technology doesn't seem to have really sparked users' fires, but the minds behind Skype aren't convinced it's time just yet to give up. Skype revealed a few days ago that they have actually been working toward officially supporting 3D video calls in the near future, once the "ecosystem of devices" is ready.

This is an interesting goal to strive toward, as coincidentally, the video calling service is celebrating its ten-year anniversary. Recently, in an interview with the BBC, as related by TechSpot, Skype vice president Mark Gillett revealed the company has seen progress with 3D displays, but things are more difficult when it comes to the ability of devices to capture in 3D.

Also hinted at in the interview, Skype is exploring the possibility of offering video calls in 1080p to other devices beyond the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and more.

Would you be interested in Skype calls in 3D or is that just a gimmick you're not particularly excited for?
