Frankie gets to play with new windows 8 gadgets!

Today Frankie and Thabiso shared their first experience with Windows 8 gadgets! 

 

Explore the corners

Share with your friends instantly. Search across apps, files, and the web. In Windows 8, you can do almost any common task by heading to the edges and corners.

 

Picture password

Choose any picture you want for your lock screen. Then, instead of typing a password, you can unlock your PC by drawing shapes on that picture with your finger or mouse. Three taps or clicks on your dog's nose? Tracing the smile of your toddler? The choice is yours.

 

Back to Start

Your Start screen is accessible, no matter what you’re doing. Swipe in from right edge or point with your mouse to the lower-left corner and you'll see the Start screen icon that takes you back instantly.

 

SkyDrive

Save your files to the cloud with no effort, and get to your files from nearly anywhere. Start a document on one PC and finish it on another. Always have the latest version of your files with you from your PC, Mac, tablet, or smartphone. Use free Office Web Apps to edit documents on SkyDrive even if you don't have Office installed.
