Best extra tools for your OFFICE SOFTWARE

Best extra tools for your OFFICE SOFTWARE

Are you getting the most from your office suite? Mike Plant explains how to find and install brilliant extras that will revolutionise Microsoft Office and LibreOffice

Adding useful features (also known as add-ons) to web browsers – such as ad blockers, search bars and password managers – has changed the way we use the internet. But, despite the likes of Microsoft Office and LibreOffice offering their own extra tools, few of us do likewise with our office software. Here, we’ll reveal where you can find these handy extras (which Microsoft in their wisdom calls add-ins) for your office software. We’ll also explain how to install (and remove) add-ins, and tell you about those we simply can’t do without.

We live in a world of sharing. Most of us post on Facebook, and lots of us tweet our thoughts and intricate moments of our day-to-day lives. We use LinkedIn to detail the intricacies of our CVs, we set up blogs, and we sometimes even reveal our real identities on forums, merging alter egos with real life. We’re more open than ever before.

Horizon: Zero Dawn

GUERRILLA GAMES IS ABOUT TO EMBARK ON ITS RISKIEST PROJECT EVER. THIS IS HORIZON: ZERO DAWN, THE MOST AMBITIOUS PS4 GAME YET

There’s a small herd of deer grazing in a field. It is a quiet field, enclosed by towering trees and bronze autumn leaves that gingerly fall from their branches, floating carelessly in the wind. This enclosure ensures the docile creatures have just enough cover to let them stand idly by as a breeze rustles softly through the undergrowth, they are blind to the hostility of the world around them. Like clockwork they come here, the herd, simply content to brush through the lush green foliage undeterred, occasionally peeking their antlers towards the Dreamcast-blue sky that stirs above them; mountain ranges and wooden huts can be seen sat atop a distant horizon. But somewhere closer is a predator; the fleeting glimpse of a fiery red mane cutting through the grass is the only hint that this serenity is about to be shattered. It’s a natural, idyllic scene that you’d likely find broadcast in 4K on a new season of Planet Earth, narrated by the docile tones of David Attenborough. But reality this is not, for something far stranger than nature lurks in plain sight.

Watch This Space

Mass Effect: Andromeda

Your destination: the Andromeda galaxy.
Your mission: find humanity a new home.
Welcome to Mass Effect: Andromeda. Bring guns.

Talk about a big bang. When word spread that Mass Effect’s long-awaited fourth instalment was to be set in a new corner of the universe, within a different stretch of time, light years removed from the scores of characters we’ve come to know and love, it sounded as though Bioware was boldly going, well, a bit too far. But the more we learn about Mass Effect: Andromeda, the more certain we are it’s blasting off in the smartest possible direction. Much like its heroes, the Ryders.
