Microsoft Ribbon Hero Uses Facebook To Help Users Learn More About Office Programs

Microsoft recently announced a new application on their Office Blog to help Office users discover the full functionality of programs like Excel, PowerPoint and Word. The company is using Facebook Connect to make the learning process an interactive game. Ribbon Hero is an add-on for Vista and Windows 7, and Microsoft also seems to be using this opportunity to promote the Office 2010 Beta.

Ribbon Hero is designed to help Excel, PowerPoint and Word users become more confident when using the programs, as well as explore the subtle nuances and hidden features that many casual users may not know exist.
