Re: Windows 7: Empower users to find, visualize and organize their data with Libraries and the Explorer

PaoloM — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 19:15:26 GMT

I may not have expressed myself correctly.

By "remote locations" I meant shares from outside your LAN. If you can see your WHS shares, you can add them to the library, but in your post you mentioned "What if I'm not at home..." that implied you were trying to reach the shares from the internet.

So if the library consists of various locations, and you arrange your files by, say, author, and you drag a bunch of files in there from he desktop like David is doing at 9:00 in the video... in which of the locations do they actually end up? I suppose it just moves them to whatever location was set as the default save location.

Correct. Each library has a default save location that you can modify at will.

Also: will the federated search work with Windows Home Server?

Yes.

What if I'm not at home, but I want to play an mp3 that's on my WHS music share. Can I just use any music player's common file dialog, and open that file remotely through federated search? Although I suppose that all depends on wether the WHS team releases a search connector for WHS shares, right?

Libraries do not allow remote locations, so this scenario is not supported. The main reasons are relevancy calculations (that may differ completely between sources) and network latency (that would drastically impact aggregated views).

There is no "WMP library" anymore.

WMP uses the library framework in Windows 7.

One more thing to fit in the schedule!

It's not obvious how you go to the last post of a thread. If you click on the username, you get rightly whisked to the user's page, so maybe hyperlinking "Last:" with an anchor to the last post?

What OpenOffice compatibility?

I understand there are DRM possibilities with Office2007, and if _that_ is the only restricting portion of the app, it could still be valuable.

You can apply DRM to any office document today, on Office 2003.

If the application itself disallowes any non-Office system to read the files at all, it will be a large problem for businesses and users

Uh? With an open file format how can they disallow other apps to read the files?
