Power Platform

Welcome to 2021. After a crazy year that saw the pace of change in Power Platform accelerate, December was a relatively quiet month. Which was nice and had visions of catching up dancing in my head. Well, that failed, I am as behind as ever. Anyway, you do not care. All you want to know…

This month you can read about some of the coolest stuff from Ignite, Microsoft Forms getting a great new feature, AI learning to read for me, and more.
