Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.     Microsoft is bringing a new way to add video stories to Teams.    It’s called Viva Engage….and a public preview will begin this summer.   The idea, says product lead Dan Holme…is to make remote work a bit more like the in person experience…with the ability to share video stories…

“Where it comes from is the realities of the pandemic and remote and hybrid work where relationships between people across working groups and across the organization became more difficult to establish and maintain.  And our customers told us that in very clear language…that building relationships is the number one challenge of remote work these days.   So Viva Engage is here to help.”

It will make creating and sharing simple from desktops or mobile devices.  It will arrive later this month.
