Timeline is possibly the most intriguing feature, offering a (literal) timeline of what you were working on slash doing on your PC months or even years ago. This will encompass files, apps and even websites: Microsoft says it'll be as if you never left them. Will it offer older unedited files? Will this visual timeline only begin from the day you start using the latest version of Windows? We expect to hear more from Microsoft on this.

Cortana is, predictably, a prime part of that whole seamless digital experience. Microsoft explains you'll soon be able to log off of your PC and have the document you were previously poring over pop up on your smartphone -- who needs a coffee break, right? Cortana will ask if you want to pick up where you left off, whether it's a document, website or app. It brings the promises of Continuum to phones that aren't running mobile iterations of Windows. This is a good thing.

Clipboard is also picking up a cloud-powered upgrade, with the option to copy from and paste to any of your connected devices. At the moment, they have to be Windows machines or popular smartphones, and we know that for mobile devices, you'll need to have SwiftKey installed as a keyboard to offer up the pasting shortcuts. It'll be able to beam photos, links, entire paragraphs and even GIFs (less important) across your various devices.

The final part of the Graph pitch is Microsoft's cloud storage service, OneDrive. Now with Files on Demand, users will be able to access and use all of their cloud files without having them take up precious storage space on their device. They'll be displayed in File Explorer, and users will still be able to lock them to work offline when they need to work without an internet connection. All these features will roll out with the Fall Creators Update later this year. Naturally, they will also arrive decked in the company's new Fluent Design, ready for mixed reality headsets in 2020.
