We have covered Teams here a lot over the past year, and the updates and improvements continue.
This post will cover the updates from the past quarter that impact my day-to-day work the most.

PowerPoint Live
PowerPoint Live significantly improves the experience when presenting a PowerPoint presentation during a Microsoft Team’s meeting.
The presenter view provides a clear picture of your slide, notes, and deck. The result is an easier way to present, share and move around the presentation. The presenter can also have the incoming video displayed across the top or on the right side.
For those attending the presentation PowerPoint live and Presenter mode provide the presenter with the ability to decide on the layout attendees see, including your video in the bottom right of the slide or not. For attendees, the presentation becomes interactive with the ability to follow links and view videos. In addition, attendees can move ahead or go back within the slides (presenter can disable).

Teams Meeting Limits
A Microsoft Teams meeting limit has been increased to 1,000 users, with the following 9,000 attendees joining in view-only mode. The meeting organizer and presenters will be notified when people are entering in view-only.

250GB File Size Support
The file size limit for Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint, is now 250GB. That should handle those larger files we are creating in our teaching videos and, for some, their auto-cad files.
Meeting Recap
Turn on recording during your next Microsoft Teams meeting, and Teams will automatically provide a complete speaker attribution transcript of the meeting along with the recording, chat, and attached files. The recap will be found in the meeting chat tab.
Share To Teams
Built into Outlook desktop and on the web, Share To Teams provides a quick and easy way to share an email with a channel or in a chat. Share to Teams provides controls to handle attachments and include @mentions.
