FIGURE 6-6 Cortana is integrated into Microsoft Edge and offers additional information for some webpages.
Cortana is also available if you select a word or phrase on a webpage and then right-click and
choose Ask Cortana, or if you begin to navigate to a webpage for an interest you chose to track. For example,
if you choose to track a flight tomorrow and begin to type in the address of your airline, Cortana
immediately tells you if your flight is on time—without you having to visit the website, navigate to the
flight status page, and enter the flight information manually.
Unlike Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge will receive smaller, iterative updates on a regular basis—
similar to other browsers, and in keeping with the promise of Windows as a service—so it’s likely to
become more feature-rich over time. The November 2015 update to Windows 10, for example, includes
the ability to cast media to a compatible device such as an Xbox One, the much-requested ability to
sync Favorites, and a tab preview option, as shown in Figure 6-7.

preview of its contents.
