How did Microsoft look before compared to now?

What is the ribbon?

Click icon to add picture

•The Ribbon is set of contextual

tools and features to users of

Word.

•When you click one of the major

tabs on the Ribbon, the tools you

need for specific tasks should

mostly be right where you need

them. The ideal result is that you

don’t need to go looking for what

you want.

•Ribbon is

organized into

tabs and

groups.•The result is that more of the

tools are exposed to you, making

it more likely that you’ll discover

what you need.

slowly morphed from menus and

toolbars into the Ribbon.
