Google Just Fixed The Worst Part About Microsoft Office
Larry Page, CEO at Google
Opening up a Microsoft Office file is a painfully slow process.
Luckily, Google just announced that it will let Mac and Windows users open up Office files within Chrome. This feature was previously only available to Chromebook users.
"In addition to saving you time, the Chrome Office Viewer also protects you from malware delivered via Office files," stated the Google blog.

In order to use the new feature, you must install and run the latest Chrome Beta and Chrome Office Viewer extension .
