    MICROSOFT TEAMS

                     Microsoft Teams was launched by Microsoft in 2017 as a collaboration platform designed to bring
                     people  together for communication  and  teamwork. It  allows  users to  chat, hold  video  and  audio
                     meetings, share files, and collaborate on projects — all within one integrated workspace. Teams is
                     widely used in schools, businesses, and organisations to improve productivity and teamwork.
                     To use Teams, you need a Microsoft account, and an Internet connection is required. It supports instant
                     messaging, voice calls, video conferencing, and integration with other Microsoft 365 apps like Word,
                     Excel, and PowerPoint. Teams helps you stay connected with colleagues, classmates, or friends, whether
                     you are working remotely or in the office.
                     With Teams, you can schedule or join meetings, host webinars, or conduct live events with up to 1,000
                     participants. You can create channels to organise conversations by topics or projects, share your screen
                     to give presentations, and collaborate on documents in real time. Teams also includes features like
                     recording meetings, live captions, and background blur to maintain privacy.
                     Key features of Microsoft Teams are as follows:
                        Seamless integration with Microsoft Office apps for easy document collaboration.
                         Real-time  chat  and  threaded  conversations  to
                       keep communication organised.                                  Factbot

                     E-BANKING

                     The technology has paced many steps. We can now transfer money online from one bank account to
                     another. In earlier days, cheques were used to transfer money and it took 2–3 days for the clearance. If
                     cheques spoiled, mutilated, and lost, then the transfer took more time as a fresh cheque was required
                     again. With e-banking, you can transfer funds easily from one account to another through a computer,
                     laptop, and even your smartphone.
