Docs.com is a file sharing site from Microsoft that lets you share many of your Microsoft Office files with other people. While there are many sites that allow you to share files, what sets Docs.com apart is that the file formats of your files are unchanged. This is a huge advantage since Docs.com treats most Microsoft Office files such as PPTX (PowerPoint), DOCX (Word), and XLSX (Excel) as native.
Of course, that’s not the only raison d'être for Docs.com – it also lets you curate a bunch of hyperlinks. In fact, Microsoft’s Curah curations also show up on Docs.com. Clearly there’s so much to learn about Docs.com – and that’s what we will learn as part of this series of tutorials.
