5. Tip of the week: Microsoft Office Lens, a free app for iOS and Android, can OCR paper documents and save it to a Word file.
6. What’s going on with Microsoft Whiteboard Seems like it was released and then removed. Jon wants a simple whiteboard app that lets him draw on his tablet, and is viewable on the secondary monitor (e.g., projector). Think Powerpoint Presenter View where Primary see’s all the tools, etc… and the secondary screen just shows the output. Does such a thing exist?

If you do, you will not be able to use the domain name for a website. It is better to register it using Google Domains and then manually configure the settings for use with Outlook.com Premium.
