1) Word 2010 enables drag and drop upload

While using the Upload Multiple Documents menu from the actions menu in a library. I noticed that this page was transformed into a drag and drop enabled upload container.



You can simply select the files you want to upload en drag them into the page.



After pressing the OK button all the documents were uploaded.



The free Office 2010 beta version is still available for downloading, check my previous post for more information

Nice to have if you ask me!
